The Librarian's Index to the Internet (www.lii.org) provides links to reliable information on a ton of subject areas. It's searchable and has over 20,000 links to sites on the web, all of which were hand picked and categorized by professionals. In addition to CPCC Libraries' collection of books and full-text article databases, LII.org can be a great place to look for information on whatever topic you are studying.
