     Annotated List of WWW Public Library Sites

     Peter Sylvan of the Milton Public Library in Milton, MA maintains an annotated list of over 100 of the U.S. Public Library WWW sites listed above and provides a critique of these sites, listing their best features!

     Best Public Libraries In US!

     For a PDF copy of "Go Ahead, Name Them: America's Best Public Libraries" by Thomas J. Hennen, Jr. published in American Libraries, January 1999 (vol. 30, No. 1, pp 72-76), click on this linked title of the article above (much better printable, readable copy). For a copy on the same article on SJCPL's Website (with permission from ALA and the author to do so) with hot links to those public libraries in each population category with Web homepages, click here.
     

     Youth WWW Public Library Sites

     A List of Public Library Youth Department Web Pages in the United States is being maintained by Patrick Persons <personsp@metronet.lib.mi.us>. It is a list of Public Library Youth departments that have a site on the Web. His criteria for inclusion has been that the site include both information about the department as well as links to Internet resources. And by Youth, he means departments that serve the 0-12 year olds.

     Public Library WWW Pages Maintained by Others

     Here's a place where kids not only can read great books, learn interesting history and facts, and work on fun projects with easy to follow illustrated plans but also can find lots of helpful links to public libraries through a search engine. Try out the Look, Learn, and Do homepage.

     Of those included in the list above, Library Science students at the Library School of Information and Library Studies, University of Michigan, are assisting the following public libraries in southeast Michigan to start up their own WWW home pages in an initiative led by Professor Joan C. Durrance. Most of the documents created by these students remain on the UM SILS server, but they point to these public libraries and their services which are virtually on the Web.

     • Mideastern Michigan Library Cooperative
     • Novi Public Library by Michele Buberniak, Yan Fu, Suzann Jude

     Also included among those listed above, CARL Corporation's Homepage has several links to the WWW homepages of their Library Partners, many of which are public library WWW sites currently under development. As of February 15th, 1995, they include the following:

     • Baltimore County Public Library (Towson, Maryland)
     • Boulder Public Library
     • Chicago Public Library
     • Monroe County Public Library

     Virtual WWW Public Libraries

     Finally, the following sites have set up what they call "Virtual Public Libraries" to serve the general public and public libraries. They include:

616. GoMLink, the 1st Virtual WWW *Library* on the Internet, which opened in February 1993 using gopher software, is an electronic library of Internet resources built for public libraries in the state of Michigan. They have direct http access or you can telnet to their public lynx client (telnet to mlink.lib.umich.edu). Their range of subjects covers what most public library collections would encompass. They use traditional library collection development philosophies to build their virtual library. There are literally thousands of Internet resources all arranged in a subject-based organizational scheme.
617. The Internet Public Library - 1st Virtual WWW *Public* Library on the Internet. The Internet Public Library Project is hosted by the School of Information and Library Studies at the University of Michigan. It "seeks to challenge and redefine the roles and significance of libraries in an increasingly distributed and digital world. Libraries have always been places of learning and excitement, opening new worlds of information, enlightenment and entertainment to all who enter. Libraries and the people who work in them are committed to democracy and equality of access, the dignity of their patrons, and the freedom to express and investigate all points of view."
618. Planet Earth Home Page Virtual Library. This virtual library contains a collection of resources available on the World Wide Web accessible through a Comprehensive Image Map or grid of subjects and Internet resources - what Dave McCarn (dmccarn@cpcug.org) calls "a neat access paradigm"; or through a Virtual Library Floorplan, a layout of rooms, each linking one to other rooms of related information; or through a Text Version of the virtual library. Each of these approaches also has a search form that one can fill out to find information in the library.
619. LibrarySpot, the information sweetspot of the best library and reference sites on the Web. LibrarySpot is a new site that offers a convenient gateway to more than 2,500 libraries around the world and simplifies the search for top-notch reference tools, periodicals and online texts, library information and more by bringing the best sites together with engaging editorial in one convenient, easy-to-use spot.

     Publications on Digital Library Research

     D-lib Magazine: The Magazine of Digital Library Research a monthly magazine with articles, news, and commentary on all aspects of digital library research. D-Lib originates in the US. It is "a forum for researchers and developers of advanced digital libraries. It is coordinated by the Corporation for National Research Initiatives for the Information Infrastructure Technology and Applications Working Group of the High Performance Computing and Communications program. Its objectives are:

     • To stimulate the development of a common infrastructure for digital libraries and to coordinate research in those aspects that require consensus.
     • To provide information exchange about all research and advanced development in digital libraries, particularly federally funded research within the High Performance Computing and Communications program.
     • To encourage and assist the transfer of these research efforts into the creation of the national digital library system."

     The monthly magazine consists of articles, news and commentary on all aspects of digital library research, from Metadata and Z39.50, to the UK eLib programme, individual projects from around the world, Internet-based education and many other topics.
