Celebrating an anniversary
The Internet Public Library is 10 years old. Hard to believe it's been that long. Early 1995 must have been a tipping point for the Web; Yahoo! has been celebrating its 10th too. Seems like about that time I began keeping a links list on a public research PC in the newsroom library; eventually that became a newsroom Intranet that I still post to every day. The IPL remains a vital, useful guide to best Web sites by topic. What would we do without our intrepid Web guides, mostly librarians like these folks from U. Mich, and the Librarians' Index to the Internet at Berkeley....

Thanks for the praise! We love doing what we do. We aren't really "from" Berkeley any more, but we continue to be California based and funded. Watch for new developments later this year!
