NACADA's Clearinghouse for Academic Advising Resources - The mission of the Clearinghouse is to promote the advancement of academic advising by providing members with electronic access to: (1) member suggested resources that aid in advisors' professional development and/or in advising students, (2) practitioner authored overviews of relevant advising topics, and (3) references that support member research for the betterment of the field, advising programs, advisors, and the students we serve.  The Clearinghouse is maintained by NACADA National headquarters and is constantly updated with information. 

Academic 360.com - Academic360.com is meta-collection of Internet resources that have been gathered for the academic job hunter. It includes links to faculty, staff, and administrative announcements and is not restricted to teaching positions. Great site to begin a search for positions in academic advising.
