LibWeb (lists.webjunction.org/libweb/)
One of the most powerful local resources just about anyone has at his or her disposal is completely free-the local library. Use this site to locate the Web site of the library closest to you.
Reader comment: "Here's a site that can provide up-to-the-minute news, archives of newspapers, research articles on all kinds of topics, audiobooks, and even personalized human assistance... your public library's Web site. Most public libraries now offer a wealth of online material searchable for free from home. All it takes is a library card. In many communities you can register for one online." -Barbara
