If I may add to this excellent post by Jay, a colleague at a neighboring institution in Philadelphia, I would add that Google Print and Google Scholar are free to all in the world and a search of the phrase digital divide in quotation marks in each of these and also the free Scirus search engine will unlock quite a bit that is useful on the digital divide in general and that is higher in scholarly or academic content than will be found in general search engines.
