A finite neutrino mass would have broad implications for our understanding of the Universe. Thus, a very wide range of experiments in high energy and nuclear physics has been mounted to search for evidence for finite mass neutrinos. These range from direct kinematic tests to double beta decay to neutrino oscillation searches. At present, there is evidence reported for neutrino oscillations in an accelerator experiment studying pion beta and muon beta decay (LSND), by several experiments studying atmospheric neutrinos, and in a number of measurements of solar neutrinos. Additional experiments are under way to test these claims and the next few years promise to be an exciting time in neutrino physics. In this paper I discuss the present status and future plans for experimental searches for a finite neutrino mass.
