and provides access to the information resources necessary for the
University of Delaware to achieve its educational, research and
service goals. The University of Delaware Library, through its
collections, services and staff, is an essential and vital component
in the intellectual life of the University of Delaware. Rapid
technological advances in the area of information storage, retrieval
and delivery are making it possible to expand access to a world of
information beyond the Library's walls. By providing optimum access
to information regardless of its location, the Library supports the
teaching and research missions of the University of Delaware in new
and enhanced ways. The University of Delaware Library consists of
the Morris Library, which is the main library, and four Branch
Libraries: the Agriculture Library in Townsend Hall (temporarily
housed in the Morris Library during renovation of Townsend Hall from
June 1, 1998 for approximately 18 months), the Chemistry Library in
Brown Lab, the Physics Library in Sharp Lab, and the Marine Studies
Library in Lewes, Delaware. All individuals have walk-in access to
the Morris Library and Branch Libraries. The University of Delaware

in residence halls, classrooms, offices and at home. The Library
provides access to DELCAT, the online catalog of library
collections, and provides access to more than 70 Library Networked
Databases including bibliographic and full text information. The
Library provides access to the complete World Wide Web, which
contains millions of links to Web sites throughout the world. To
assist users in navigating the World Wide Web, the Library has
created more than 90 subject Web pages in academic disciplines. Each

which point to a selection of some of the best Web sites in each
subject area. The "Guide to Internet Resources" is accessible to all
