confused References to World Community Grid in Print media? Need help!

Hi guys,

I'm creating a website for one of my university units, and I've chosen to write about World Community Grid as I want to do my bit to spread the word and because I believe it's a very exciting and worthwhile cause.

But the problem is, I am only allowed to use sources from Print media, ie. Books, magazines, newspapers, journals, brochures, pamphlets, etc... Which makes it a little difficult because obviously most of the information for the project is going to be in the form of Non-print media...

So I'm hoping that someone out there could possibly point me in the right direction here. All I've been able to dig up myself is a few .pdf files covering the basics from the Marketing Toolkit on the WCG site, which I'm printing out (I'll claim that they were pamphlets I received in the mail or something).

Can anyone help me out? Any help is very greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time,

MoFF biggrin
