Great Scouts!
CyberGuides to Subject Searching
on the Web
By Nora Paul and Margot Williams
Edited by Paula Hane; Foreword by Barbara Quint
Great Scouts! is a cure for information overload. Authors
Nora Paul (The Poynter Institute) and Margot Williams
(The Washington Post) direct readers to the very
best subject-specific, Web-based information resources.
Thirty chapters cover specialized “CyberGuides” selected
as the premier Internet sources of information on business,
education, arts and entertainment, science and technology,
health and medicine, politics and government, law, sports,
and much more. With its expert advice and evaluations
of information and link content, value, currency, stability,
and usability, Great Scouts! takes you “beyond search
engines”—and directly to the top sources of information
for your topic. As a reader bonus, the authors are maintaining
a Web page featuring updated links to all the sites covered
in the book.
