Catalogs or subject guides?

	Unlike Bill, I do not think we are in an "either/or" situation,
that is, either we catalog Internet resources or we develop
subject-oriented guides or bibliographies.  

	I have and I continue to encourage libraries to identify,
select, and catalog Internet resources.  Much is to be gained by this
approach.
