Abstract

The quality of information on the Internet is varied. Examines some of the review services available and their evaluation criteria: cool sites, Excite, GNN Select, Magellan, CyberHound, iGuide, Yahoo!, Internet Life, Point and services from librarians. The latter services follow print reviewing criteria. Discusses how these criteria can be modified for use with digital resources, stressing that current reviewing processes on the Internet need to change to ensure quality
