Several people asked me to send them the URL (if I found it)
of the college library webpage I was looking for.  It is Williams
College, http://www.williams.edu/library.  Specifically, I liked
the ways they listed their databases, and provided descriptions
for them --  http://www.williams.edu/library/indexes/master.php.

If you are particularly proud of the way you've solved the problem
of presenting and describing your electronic collections, I would
love to hear about it.  I've begun to think there is no good way to
do this.  Certainly I've done it in a number of unsatisfying ways.

      Your most humble and obedient servant,
