The digitization of collections around the world offers tremendous opportunity for researchers on almost any subject. But how does one know what's available? That problem is masterfully addressed by Digital Collections Worldwide, another cutting-edge research tool from Neal-Schuman. An invaluable resource for anyone wishing to take full advantage of what the web has to offer, this extensively annotated and thoroughly indexed guide organizes and describes the contents of thousands of important digital collections around the globe. Organized geographically by continent, each chapter begins with an overview of the continent and digital collections relevant to the continent as a whole, and then provides separate sections for individual nations, introducing important digital collections and offering descriptions of their scope and purpose. Detailed information is then provided on each collection and each of its segments, including links to representative material. Pointing the way to many valuable and informative collections that are currently highly underutilized, the guide helps both librarians and researchers answer questions such as: * What is the subject matter and content of the digitization project? * What institution, organization, library, museum or other host is making the information available?
