Annotated resources
The purpose of this page is to share and review resources I have used for this project.
Mahara design pages
I created two Mahara design pages, one is an index of the Permaculture Design Principles - David Holmgrin’s 12 Principles and Bill Mollison’s 34 principles. (Design principles page here - opens new page). I find this a great reference resource to have on hand when designing. I also created a page for the Activity Hub of Design tools (Design tools here - opens new page). I find the visual of having many design tools on one page very helpful when entering the design phase.
Web Pages
Permacultre Resource is a free permaculture resource library I created several years ago. I find it very helpful as a way of bookmarking and backing up documents and links while making them easily accessible and sharable.

One page in this library is a categorized list of webpage links.

This pattern writing cheat sheet from the Public Sphere Project is useful when trying to understand a complex issue with many variables.

When my computer crashed I was very happy to have all my website bookmarks backed-up on xmarks.com. You can also share your xmark bookmark folders via RSS feed on your OPs.

Although my connection to attend a PDC that I found on this site failed, it is an incredible resource page. Containing many links to permaculture related webpages and projects (in spanish).

I find Wikipedia an amazing resource, to understanding new terms, people histories and branches of concepts. I am collecting ecosocial wikipedia pages which you can find in the RSS bookmark feed in the right column.

Books
Siddhartha by Herman Hesse, came back into my hands during this LR after not having seen it for a decade. This book provided me a lot of beneficial introspection about values and helped me see again the beauty of a path which is The goal. I highly recommend reading it and rereading it. You can download it free in many formats here.
Ishmael by Daniel Quinn came to me via the NE Permaculture Convergence in Quebec. This book had a profound impact on the way I see my work in the eco-social field. An incredible read! It can be downloaded in PDF format for free here.
Polishing the Mirror - How to Live From Your Spiritual Heart by Ram Das was also an important book I read during this review time. Ram Das’s words help give me a deep sense of gratitude for my path. You can look inside it and order it on Amazon here.
