and appropriateness. Unlike a search engine, you have to do your
own hunting around.

SEARCH ENGINES AND DIRECTORY
SEARCHES
A search engine has a database of
files. When you type in a word(s), it searches that database
and returns a list of links to websites on your topic.

IPL - Internet Public Library
The collection of the Youth Division of the Internet Public Library
is developed for children ages 4-11, their parents, teachers, and anyone
else interested in the literature and information directed to and about
children. Material used and sites recommended are chosen based on their
appropriateness for the subject matter (ie, science projects, math,
stories, literature discussion, etc) and should be written and maintained
by an authoritative source. The information should be current, accurate,
and presented in an objective and well-organized manner.
