The Internet Public
Library
The Internet
Public Library is the first public library of the Internet.
As librarians, we are committed to providing valuable
services to that world. We do so for many reasons: to
provide library services to the Internet community, to learn
and teach what librarians have to contribute in a digital
environment, to promote librarianship and the importance of
libraries, and to share interesting ideas and techniques
with other librarians.
The IPL Ready
Reference Collection is a collection of Internet resources
gathered together with the needs of the Internet community
in mind. It is not intended to be a comprehensive hotlist to
all sites on every subject, but rather an annotated
collection, chosen to help answer specific questions quickly
and efficiently. Sources are selected according to ease of
use, quality and quantity of information, frequency of
updating, and authoritativeness. For further information,
please see About
the Ready Reference Collection. |
