You can easily identify and connect to quality web sites by using La Salle University Librarys own catalog: The Connelly Explorer. The Systems Librarian has located useful Web sites and created a catalog record with a link to the actual Web site itself. The Web site is fully described and assigned standard Library of Congress Subject Headings just as is done for books. A list of these sites can be obtained by typing computer network resources as the subject heading.
