Net Librarian 8.0Net Librarian is an Internet Search utility which functions like a search engine, but brings back lists of Web sites which match keywords you enter. This saves you the time of waiting to browse each one of these Web sites to see whether your keywords are there. (Search engines don't ensure that your keywords are actually on the page.) You can view these at your leisure, and copy and paste topics for your research report or student paper.
