The website provides detailed info about ecpr numerous activities (mainly workshops, roundtables, conferences and summer schools organization, and publishing of journals, books, and newsletters). In particular, a rich archive – directly and fully accessible and downloadable in the original format for free by all users – collecting the conference papers from 1999 has been recently made available. Direct and free access is possible also to standing groups webpages, as well as to full-text issues of European Political Science, the ecpr professional electronic journal. Also a member directory (a database with political scientists in ecpr member institutions) with contact details of institutions and single scholars, is freely searchable as well as a subscritpion to the ecpr electronic bulletins. In addition, details on job markets, PS publishers and publications, news on conferences of interest to ecpr members and comprehensive European information for political scientists are also presented in the website. The newly designed website interface allows for easy orientation even if navigational aids are not highly developed.
