The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.

This guide provides resources (written and on the web) about the contributions of women to astronomy. It includes sections on over 30 specific women of the past and present, and also a section of general articles and web sites on the tribulations and triumphs of women in the field. This is a good source of information for students doing papers and includes a number of sources they would probably not find on their own.
