Abstract	Organizations and programs with a major emphasis in rural education and small schools are listed in this directory. The entries--derived from a survey conducted in late 1985 and early 1986--are listed alphabetically by state within national, regional, state, and university categories. A brief description of the activity's function is followed by the date it was established and if it sponsors an annual conference or publishes a newsletter or journal. A foreign category is included in recognition that some issues in rural education are universal. There are 82 entries listed, more than twice the number of the 1983 edition of the directory. Of the 82 activities in the directory, 60% (49) were initiated since 1980. Of the 10 state programs, only 2 existed prior to 1983. Only 10 of the 27 university-based programs existed before 1980. Only 15 activities (18%) represent national organizations or programs. Grassroots strength is shown in the state and university activities, which account for 57 (70%) of the entries. Completing the directory is a list of eight journals that are wholly or in part concerned with sharing information about rural and small schools, the populations they serve, and the settings in which they function.
