Peter's Digital Reference Shelf-March edition

[Lois Kiehl]

The March edition of Peter's Digital Reference Shelf is now available on
the Gale Group website. This month's column evaluates three vastly
different online biographical databases:

	Biography Resource Center
	Biography.com
	Biographical Dictionary

These in-depth reviews are illustrated with dozens of screenshots and
provide a multi-linked virtual walk-through of the databases. They are
written by Peter Jacso, the 1998 recipient of the Louis Shores - Oryx
Press Award of the Reference and User Services Association for his
discerning database reviews. His column is available free of charge to all
users at
