Libraries providing public Internet or
computer access often instruct and
provide technical support to their more
inexperienced patrons. This month's sites
include online tutorials and guides to
help newer users and to assist librarians
in teaching classes and pointing patrons
toward online resources.
(Library Journal. November 1, 1999) Reference on the Web
Responding to the World Wide Web's
growing popularity as areference tool,
libraries are trying to organize its
amorphous, ever-expanding mass for
research through the creation of ready-reference
web pages with links to metasites,
compilations of hundreds, even thousands,
of resources.
