The Library of Congress has launched a new
online international project called Portals to the World, a guide to Internet
resources dealing with the countries and regions of the world. Portals to the
World (www.loc.gov/rr/international/portals.html) offers
links to selective and authoritative electronic resources - arranged by country
or geographic regions - with the links for each sorted in a wide range of broad
categories. Typical categories are business, commerce, economy, culture,
education, government, politics, law, history, libraries and archives, with some
categories tailored to subjects of particular importance for the study of
individual nations. In some cases, search engines local to that nation or
language have also been included, as have links to worldwide organizations such
as the World Bank and UNESCO.
