LinksThis whole section of the site is under constant revision.
These subsections are interrelated. For example, a mailing list may be have job listings posted on it periodically; or an organization may offer group insurance and a mailing list. So you might want to look them all over. If you've got an interesting link to add, please let me know. Job listingsTwo basic types of online job listings: A) Classifieds, in which those looking for freelancers wait for you to apply to them. B) Freelancer lists, where you place your name on the list and let those looking for freelancers find you. OrganizationsThere are a multitude of organizations devoted to the various lines of freelancing for publishers. I can't list them all. Some of them very specific to certain types of jobs, some are regional, some offer group insurance and other benefits to members (I've made a note of these when I know about them). Mailing listsEvery topic under the sun has a mailing list these days, and the majority of websites and organizations run lists on the side. This is not an exhaustive compilation by any means. You might want to check the usual places, such as eGroups and Hotlist, for others. Educational materialsYou can teach yourself or take a course in copyediting, proofreading, indexing, and related fields. Here are some general links related to this. You can find more on your own, but these can get you started.
