Library Cataloging
Your Local Library
PC World in their Best of the Web article gives the lead position to Your Local Library as a best reference source.
Your Library's Web Site
Frustrated by the growing number of pay-per-view Web archives? Your local library's Web site might be able to help, though you may need a library card to enjoy full access. For example, New York Public Library cardholders can read issues of The New York Times online for the past year, and anyone in the world can ask the librarian any question. You'll find encyclopedias, community information, and more than enough reasons to ensure that your library card is up-to-date.
