I've been working on putting together a subject guide to 
Web-accessible resources dealing with library support for 
distance learning. I have a preliminary version up on the Web
now, and I'd appreciate if those involved with library support
for distance learners might take a look at it and let me know
what they think. This is a work-in-progress at this point, so
I will appreciate any and all suggestions. I hope to receive
helpful feedback!!

In addition to the usual links to general sites on distance learning,
I've included the following:

* Links to about 20 Web-accessible papers/articles that I've 
  selected to help people think critically about distance learning
  generally.
* Links to 50+ Web-accessible papers/articles/reports dealing
  specifically with library support for distance learning.
* Links to more than 60 individual library sites, with examples of
  how the these different libraries offer services to distance learners.

One final note, for whatever reasons, this site works better
with Netscape......nothing I did intentionally.  :-)
