In response to the need of many individuals and communities throughout Pennsylvania for an effective network to disseminate information about water resources, a study was conducted to explore possible relationships between the Water Resources Center and the Pennsylvania Cooperative Extension Service. The report focused on a case history review of the information transfer specialist who facilitated exchanges between the two agencies. To assist the specialist, a water resources needs survey was distributed to relevant community members to determine the seriousness of local water problems. He acquired additional information through the use of trade journals, newspaper clippings, and a computer-based water resources information center. The research project has served to reinforce the feeling that the joint Water Center-Extension programs have the potential to greatly enhance the successful transfer of water resources information.
