Librarian's Web Resources: Getting Started on the Web
This page links to other WWW sites aiming to organize or introduce the Web. Most are geared to librarians. Many are for librarians in specific types of libraries or with particular subject specialties.
As always, we try to limit these links to resources relevant to those involved in the purchasing of books, serials and other information resources.
