Specialty Search Roundup #7

Another week and another set of specialty databases and research tools that were posted on ResourceShelf during the past week or so.

  • Art Museums: A Collection of Searchable Databases
    This is the first in a series (more soon) of posts that review databases from some of the great art museums around the world. In all cases these databases offer searchable access to part or all of these museums collections while offering you the chance to search using a variety of criteria.
  • UKís Resource Discovery Network Now Known as Intute
    Yesterday, I posted about the new NOODP tag from Google. While DMOZ/ODP doesn’t have the same stature that it once did. However, researchers shouldn’t forget the value of non-commercial/searchable/general purpose web directories where quality of the underlying resources trumps overall size. Intute is an excellent example of this. Be ready to spend some time here. Also, make sure to look at the Virtual Training Suite and Internet Detective, two of Intute’s many parts.
  • New Look for The Gateway to Educational Materials Database
    Primarily cosmetic changes but it’s a good excuse to make a mention of it. If you’re looking for high quality materials for educational purposes this database is a “must” bookmark. It’s also worth pointing out that “The Gateway” is powered by faceted search technology from Siderean. Bow, this same technology will soon be available from the Librarians’ Internet Index, another essential non-commercial/searchable/general purpose web directory.
  • Database: A Nanotechnology Consumer Products Inventory
    “While not comprehensive, this inventory gives the public the best available look at the 200+ nanotechnology-based consumer products currently on the market. Prior to this inventory, the figure most often cited by the U.S. government was that approximately 80 consumer products containing nanomaterials were being sold. Please feel free to explore the inventory by browsing the products, or perform an advanced search.”
