[William Frost]

The Internet Collegiate Reference Collection (http://library.bloomu.edu/reference/) is now fully keyword searchable in addition to being displayed by Library of Congress class.  More than 650 records have been assigned titles, subject headings, descriptions, provider names, reference categories, and an LC class.

The collection is designed for English-speaking undergraduates, especially those in the U.S.  It consists of free Internet encyclopedias, dictionaries, handbooks, databases, etc.  Many of the catalogs and bibliographies link to full text titles.

Records are stored in a Postgres SQL  database on a Red Hat Linux server.  Data may be entered and displayed from any browser linking to PHP Web pages.  Truncation is automatic.

Feel free to link to the ICRC.  I'd appreciate notification when you do.  Comments and suggestions for additions are welcome.
