Dipterists Society
An International Society for Dipterology
The entrance of the Society into the digital world was in 1996 with the posting of the “Directory of North American Dipterists” on the web, after having been previously distributed in hard copy along with the mailings of early Fly Times issues.
Shortly thereafter (and only shortly after production using a dot matrix printer was replaced with a laser printer), with the April 1997 issue (#18), the Fly Times was available in both an html version on the web and a mailed hard copy. This continued through the April 2001 issue (#26), after which the Fly Times was available as a downloadable PDF instead of html. Production and mailing of hard copies ceased after the October 2007 issue (#39), leaving only the PDF version online.
For distributable digital media (which are listed in the Digital Media section), the first CD-ROM publication was volume 1 of the Diptera Data Dissemination Disk in 1998, which was distributed among interested dipterists and then included along with volume 9 of Myia. This was followed by volume 2 in 2004. Although we will likely not produce further CD-ROM publications in this format, we anticipate moving forward with digital resources via the world wide web.
