University of Toronto, Instructional and Research Computing and University of Toronto, Computing and Communications provided the computers, modems, software, and internet access.

14 ASA members volunteered their time as consultants to assist conference attendees in using internet resources. The volunteers were: Joe Caruso, Richard Chowning, Ali Dinar, David Easterbrook, Gregory Finnegan, Karen Fung, Kerry Gallivan, Al Kagan, Patricia Kuntz, Sheryl McCurdy, Julie Sisskind, Jeff Strabone, Jim Zaffiro, Joanne Zellers.

A printed guide to Africa-related internet resources was prepared by Karen Fung as a handout for the booth. The present guide is an updated version of the 1994 guide.
