decade/tourism/html_eng/index_en.htm. This website provides
an international scope on cultural tourism. The website's aim
is to work together with other agencies such as the World Tourism
Organisation, United Nations Development Programme and the World
Bank, to devise strategies to preserve cultural heritage while
promoting intercultural exchanges, thereby contributing to sustainable
economic, social and cultural development. Some joint projects
featured include "Silk Roads in Central Asia" and "Slave Routes".
The website also features internationally-accepted cultural tourism
principles and practices and many examples of these principles
in application. There are also web links to many of the international
organisations and agencies that are partnering in these cultural
tourism initiatives.
- The World Heritage Newsletter http://www.unesco.org/whc/news/index-en.htm.
Although not linked to the UNESCO culture site, this website makes
available all 26 of UNESCO's World Heritage Newsletters from April
2000 to February 1993. Each newsletter is described with a table
of contents and has a direct link. Some topics of interest to
cultural and heritage tourism are: Conserving outstanding cultural
landscapes (June 1993); Canals and cultural routes (June 1995);
and Education & fostering awareness about heritage (March 1996).
- The National Assembly of State Arts Agencies (NASAA) http://www.nasaa-arts.org/new/nasaa/artworks/ct_contents.shtml.
The National Assembly of State Arts Agencies (NASAA) mission is
to advance and promote a meaningful role for the arts in the lives
of individuals, families and communities throughout the United
States. They empower state arts agencies through assistance that
fosters leadership, enhances planning and decision-making, and
increases resources. Although the emphasis is on the American
cultural tourism scene, there is some useful information relating
to the broader cultural tourism subject. Some examples include
definition of cultural tourism, cultural visitor profiles, examples
of state cultural tourism initiatives such as websites that target
North Carolina cultural travellers, The Virginia African-American
Heritage Trail and publications.
Other Sites
- Utah Heritage Tourism Toolkit http://history.utah.org/httoolkit/.
Community awareness and interest in expanding, preserving, and
managing heritage resources is growing around the world. The process
of cultural tourism development is often complex and takes time
and the proper tools. The Utah Division of State History Office
of Preservation has developed the Heritage Tourism Toolkit, which
is a package of practical tools that communities or groups can
use to develop, manage, and protect their cultural and heritage
resources. The toolkit is well organised, provides applicable
information for researchers and useful methods for tourism practitioners
from diverse jurisdictions.
- Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) www.canadatourism.com.
The Canadian Tourism Commission offers a wealth of reference information
on a broad spectrum of tourism areas. A useful tool for the cultural
tourism researcher is the Reference Centre. Here one can search
the CTC Library Catalogue using a simple search or more detailed
search for a particular title. A keyword search using the terms
"cultural tourism" turned up 62 references with complete bibliographical
information. The publications are both Canadian and international,
and are published as recently as the year 2000. The documents
can be ordered through interlibrary loan.
- Australian Centre for Cultural and Media Policy (CMP) http://tkraken.itc.gu.edu.au/centre/cmp/los_4.html.
CMP is operated out of the School of Film, Media & Cultural Studies
at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. The Cultural Tourism
and Heritage Links page provides a wide array of online cultural
tourism resources. Although the emphasis is on the Australian
cultural heritage scene, the website offers publications and links
to related policy areas in other agencies, as well as links to
overseas cultural tourism agencies and online research documents.
Additional
Gateway Sites [Prepared by Michael Wong, SFU Graduate
Student]
- Griffith University http://www.gu.edu.au/centre/cmp/los_4.html
The Griffith University in Australia has an well-organised website

& Culture Ministries located around the world, which include Japan,
Italy, Iceland, Greece, and Brazil. This page offers publications
on economic indicators of Australia, on-line books on cultural
tourism, and links to governmental agencies related to promoting
cultural tourism in Australia. Two links from this site include
the UNESCO World Heritage Center http://www.unesco.org/whc/nwhc/pages/
home/pages/homepage.htm which provides information on the
UNESCO convention and those countries participating in this important
pact that protects historical sites. One can find information
to world heritage sites by either subject topics or by geographical
regions. Some of the categories include natural, fossil, biosphere,
tropical, cultural and historic regions and The Organisation of
World Heritage Cities http://www.ovpm.org/main.asp
which consists of over 164 cities that are listed as heritage
urban areas. The purpose of this site is allow government administrator

Olympics Related Research
[Prepared by Geoff Reid, REM Graduate Student]
Gateway Sites
- TorontoSummerGames.com - The 2008 Olympic Bid Information Site:
www.torontosummergames.com.
TSG.com is an independent website focusing not only on the 2008
Olympic Bid process but also other future bids as well. The site
publishes features and original articles and stories not available
elsewhere online. Their membership includes the world media, members
of bid city committees around the world, IOC officials and members
as well as Olympic fans, businesses and athletes. It contains
daily news updates compiled through media sources throughout the
world. In addition, the site acts as a good starting location
to link to bid sites for the 2008 and 2012 Summer Games as well
as the 2010 Winter Games, as well as containing links to more
research-oriented sites. The site also contains a highly visited
discussion board with forums related to the 2008 and upcoming
bids. While being relatively easy to navigate, the site has a
tendency to be visually cluttered, especially on main pages. As
advertising supports the site, the banners also contribute to
the overall aesthetic busyness. Having operated for about three
years, it is one of the best sources on the web for news and for
links to other sites related to the Olympics.
- Light the Fire Within - The Governor's Music and Education
Program: www.lightwithin.org/olylinks.html.
This site is the Internet component of Governor of Utah Michael
Leavitt's programme to provide "Utah K-12 students with a foundation
of Olympic values through music and curriculum" in preparation
for Salt Lake City's hosting of the 2002 Winter Games. The Olympic
Links Page of the site provides excellent links to more research
oriented sites and is a good navigation guide for Olympics research.
It has a clean, minimalist and well-designed aesthetic with good
use of graphics and white space. The links are well organized
with critical, clear and concise commentary that is useful. While
not entirely comprehensive, the site has provided the most substantive
links for an online researcher.
- The Great Olympic Swindle - Olympic Links: ajennings.8m.com/links.htm.
This links page provides an all-inclusive list of sites related
to organizations and individuals critical of the Olympics, as
well as recent news and articles or article series on problems
related to the Games. The site's creator is Andrew Jennings, a
well-known journalist who has written a series of books investigating
the IOC and the Olympic 'movement'. The site, well not particularly
graphically well-designed or interesting, is very easy to navigate.
The links page operates as a nerve center on the pulse of the
online anti-Olympic opposition and provides the researcher with
the links necessary for alternative points of view. The rest of
the site can perhaps be viewed primarily as an advertisement for
Jennings' books.
Other Sites
- The Olympic Studies Centre and International Chair in Olympism
at the University of Barcelona: http://www.blues.uab.es/olympic.studies/index.html.
This trilingual site in English, Catalan and Spanish is fairly
comprehensive. It includes books and working papers that you can
purchase online, and also has many online documents on topics
related to Olympic Studies. The site is reasonably well-designed
and graphically pleasing, if not brilliantly so; but is not easy
to navigate with inconsistent page headings and intrasite links.
Perhaps the component of the site most useful to researchers is
an online database. The "Olympic Studies International Directory"
is searchable by author, institution, country or subject area.
Given that the Directory is co-sponsored by the IOC's Olympic
Museum, it surprisingly also includes Olympic scholars critical
of the Games. Searches produce contact information on Olympic
scholars and their research and publications that is very useful
for further online, as well as library, research.
- The International Centre for Olympic Studies at the University
of Western Ontario: http://www.uwo.ca/olympic/index.html.
This site is useful primarily for providing information on the
Centre's activities, events, and publications. It does not provide
much online documentation, and but provides limited bibliographic
information related to its academic journal "Olympika". The site's
graphics and navigability are average and it contains a design
sensibility that verges upon being dated. However, given that
the Centre appears to have very limited support from the University,
it has developed a fairly respectable website.
- The University of Technology, Sydney - Working Towards Your
Future in Sydney 2000 http://www.olympic.uts.edu.au/index.html.
The UTS website documents the community projects undertaken in
Sydney to supplement the Games as well as including a annotated
bibliography with a myriad of publications by UTS community members
under a diverse and wide-ranging list of topic headings. The site
is simple, yet elegantly and very professionally well-designed
and graphically pleasing and extremely easy to navigate.
- The Amateur Athletic Foundation of Los Angeles www.aafla.org.
The AAF possesses one of the world's largest collections of Olympics
related material and is currently undertaking an ambitious effort
to convert large amounts of its collected works into digital format.
This excellent reference site is very well designed and easy to
navigate, with the possible exception of its frames format restricting
the amount of onscreen viewable material a bit too much. There
appears to be a very large amount of Olympic related material
available in Acrobat/pdf format, but unfortunately the virtual
archives were closed for maintenance at the time this is written,
so I was unable to utilize this feature. Overall however this
is perhaps the best website for Olympic researchers looking for
online secondary research.
- Olympic Museum Lausanne www.museum.olympic.org.
This is the online site for the Olympic Museum located in Lausanne,
Switzerland within the International Olympic Committee's headquarters
complex. This site, (part of the IOC's official website), is extremely
well designed and easy to navigate, and exemplifies the tremendous
financial and info tech resources available to the IOC. The most
relevant section of the site for researchers is the "Olympics
Studies Centre", which is the repository of the Historical Archives,
the Documentation Centre, and the Library, which have varying
levels of access to the public. There is little online documentation
beyond a link to the online directory of the Library's collection,
but the site provides good access to communicate with researchers
at the museum, who will provide the first two hours of their time
for free.
- Bread not Circuses - a coalition of groups concerned about
Toronto's 2008 Olympic Bid: www.breadnotcircuses.org.
Bread not Circuses' website includes online articles and essays
on mega-event impacts and the Olympics by leading Canadian and
international journalists and scholars. The site is not well designed
or graphically pleasing, but perhaps this is not unexpected given
the very limited financial resources of BnC. However, despite
the site's aesthetic limitations, the online essays provide good
background for researchers interested in a critical perspective
of the Olympics and its potential impacts upon urban areas.

Destination Positioning
[Prepared by Gillian MacDonald, UBC Graduate Student]
Gateway Sites
- Tourism Research Links http://www.waksberg.com/index.html.
Rene Waksberg created this comprehensive gateway site with the
tourism researcher in mind. It states directly on the home page
that the site is not intended for travelers, but rather for the
researcher specifically. The site is divided into three main categories:
Research, Niche Marketing, and Technology. Within those three
categories are hundreds of links to organizations which manage,
consult, or research tourism, as well as tourism schools. This
gateway is a perfect starting point for any individual interested
in conducting research on the travel industry, or more specifically
on destination marketing and positioning. It is somewhat tedious
going through the numerous sites available in order to find the
best ones, but having such high quality travel research sites
all in one spot is indispensable. Additionally the site is maintained
regularly so as to ensure that the links are as up to date as
possible.
- Tom Rourke's Home Page http://hubcap.clemson.edu/~trourke/.
Tom Rourke is a doctoral student majoring in tourism planning
at Clemson University in South Carolina. He has put together a
web site that is useful for the tourism researcher. Similar to
Rene Waksberg's site, it provides links to numerous academic journals
as well as to organizations which deal with tourism and research.
Rourke's web site, however, is more user friendly and is significantly
more aesthetically pleasing that Waksberg's site. Many of the
web sites found on gateway site #1 are the same as those on gateway
site #2, but there are enough differences between them to merit
including both as gateways.
- The Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology Library
http://www.chchpoly.ac.nz/library.
This web page is located on the Christchurch Polytechnic Institute
of Technology's web site. On the library page of the web site
is a category entitled "Resources by Subject". After clicking
on that category, the "Commerce" heading will appear somewhere
on the page with subheadings for "Hospitality", "Marketing" and
"Travel & Tourism". All of these subheadings provide links to
a variety of sources in their specific fields. Under the "Travel
& Tourism" section, for example, there are links provided to a
number of resources on the World Wide Web related to travel and
tourism research. Some of the more important links with information
concerning destination positioning are the Asia-Pacific Journal
of Tourism Research, the Journal of Travel Research, as well as
Eclipse 1, Eclipse 2 and ProQuest. ProQuest is a useful search
engine for online ejournals.
Other Sites
- Alastair M. Morrison - Hospitality Consulting & Tourism Consulting,

of information in order to assist communities in their tourism
development efforts. Similar to Alistair M. Morrison's home page,
this web site provides several useful PowerPoint presentations
dealing specifically with tourism and destination marketing located
in the Hospitality/Tourism Education section. The site also provides
links to tourism journals as well as sites providing travel statistics.
- Indiana University http://www.indiana.edu/index.html.
This web site provides a function that searches through 180,000
IU web pages. When the words destination, marketing are entered
into the search function a number of useful documents appear.
For example "The Pictorial Element of Destination Promotions in
Tourist Destination Image Formation", "The Effect of Pull Factors
Used to Influence Tourist Destination Choices on Retirement Destination
Choices".
- International Centre of Studies on the Tourist Economy (CISET)
http://helios.unive.it/~ciset/index.html.
Established in 1991, CISET is an international centre of tourism
economic studies, and is a member of the Business Council of the
World Tourism Organization. CISET's mission is to carry out research
and studies on tourism with particular emphasis on its national
and international, regional and local, Italian and foreign economic
aspects. The web site provides the researcher access to its publications,
conferences and online documents. Of particular interest are the
documents dealing with the Centre's research on tourism and hospitality
management specifically one entitled From Destination to Destination
Marketing Management. The Centre also offers its working papers
to be sent free of charge to University libraries, teachers, researchers
and consultants interested in tourism studies.
- Hotel Online - Where the Hospitality Industry Meets...Online
http://www.hotel-online.com/Neo.
This web site provides the latest and most relevant news, trends
and discussion forums in the hospitality industry. The search
function on this website provides access to numerous articles

results including "Positioning a Tourism Destination To Gain a
Competitive Edge" from the Asia Pacific Journal. Numerous case
studies also appear including "Positioning Sabah as an International
Tourist Destination", presented at the Fourth International Conference
"Tourism in Southeast Asia and Indo-China: Development, Marketing
and Sustainability".
- Eclipse http://www.chchpoly.ac.nz/library/subject/eclipse1.pdf.
The journal Eclipse is a destination marketing journal. Each issue
covers a single theme in three sections, namely discussion, case
study and research. Issue number one deals specifically with destination
image, and thoroughly describes destination, image, perception,
and positioning. It includes a case study on Japanese outbound
travel, as well as a comprehensive section on "what the academics
say" about the topic.
