What is a search directory?
A directory contains Web sites arranged by subject which you can browse like you would an encyclopedia. The sites included are often evaluated by scholars in the fields. So, you are searching a much smaller set of Web sites, though a much more focused collection. — Web Search Engines & Site Evaluation — “What is a metasite?” A Metasite is a Web site which collects sites evaluated by scholars in the fields and arranges them by subject. On the Library page, click on Search for Subject Guides & the Web. Click on Metasites and then on Librarian’s Internet or Infomine. Browse by the subject headings listed. — Chronicle of Higher Education — “Where is the Chronicle of Higher Education indexed?” It is indexed in Education Abstracts, a database in FirstSearch. In FirstSearch, go to Education Abstracts. Type in Chronicle of Higher Education and change the field to Source. Click search and you get all of the articles from the Chronicle in that database.
