Abstract
Recent experimental results from the HERMES collaboration at DESY and the SMC collaboration at CERN suggest that it may be possible to access nucleon transversity distributions through the measurement of transverse single spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive hard scattering processes. In this paper we review current and future experimental activities to measure transversity. We include a discussion of the measurement of the relevant fragmentation functions in e + e − annihilation.
