[comp.mail.misc] Looking for public databases

victor@walt.cc.utexas.edu (Victor Menayang) (10/09/89)

I'm looking for database of any sort that could be accessed through the
Internet. I'm particulary interested in those databases with an
encyclopaedic nature which provide general information.

I would also like to have the Internet address of any library that
has an online catalog.

Information and pointers will be highly appreciated. Please mail me
directly since I am not a frequent user of usenet.

Please post results on Usenet.

Also, the Colorado Alliance of Libraries (CARL) which includes CU,
has an online catalog, and I assume many CU computers are on the
Internet.  I know that doesn't answer your question but that's all the
info I have.
