Extension and Experiment Station Publications
It can be very challenging to locate information about individual ISU Extension publications via the library website. Quick Search will list the name of the series, but it will not list individual publications within each series. The Parks Library Reference Collection has a List of Current Series, Serial Publications (Series Publications of Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service), published as of March 2004. It lists each publication from 1888-2004 (by title and publication number - and in some cases it will show an author name).

Abstract
According to the 2012 Ag Census, there are 32,167 women farm operators in Iowa, representing 9,102,738 acres. Of that group, 7,108 are listed as principal operators, representing 868,909 acres. Although Iowa State University does not discriminate in agronomic training offered, some studies show women are more comfortable attending workshops designed for female attendance only.
