I am a graduate student at Cornell looking for materials on rural banking
(published or non-published). Specifically, I am looking for information
regarding the impact of the CRA on rural banking, the impact of locally-owned
rural financial institutions on rural communities, and partnerships between
rural financial institutions and non-banks that offer lending assistance. If
you are particularly familiar with these topics, or have access to
information which may be of use to me, please let me know. Thank you, Hallie
Salem

Hi. In 1998, the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) presented a paper called
"Best Practices in Rural Development" which identified programs and
initiatives designed to provide capital and credit in rural areas. It
discusses both housing and economic issues. There is a Rural Development
Directory at the end. I would be happy to send you a copy.
