Advice on Finding History Sites

The sites listed below are in most cases directories of directories, each with links to many other sites. For example, under the Massachusetts Institute of Technology you will find the International Directory of University Home Pages.

The sites are listed in alphabetical order, according to the name of the host institution. Sites within the same institution are shown in a hierarchy. In some cases an additional sponsor for the site is indicated, for example "American Library Association, via the University of Illinois at Chicago".

If you are unable to connect to a site or to utilize it effectively, try the higher levels of the hierarchy for the host. You could also use your Web browsing program to shorten the address of the site, from right to left, at each "/" slash mark.

For example, if you cannot connect to:
"www.some.college.edu/HistoryDept/USHistory/CivilWar/Gettysburg.html" try:
"www.some.college.edu/HistoryDept/USHistory/CivilWar/" then:
"www.some.college.edu/HistoryDept/USHistory/" then:
"www.some.college.edu/HistoryDept/" then:
"www.some.college.edu/".

From the listing presented here, to find subject headings or descriptive terms such as "architecture", "archives", "ancient", or "Egypt", or to search for any of the words that appear on your screen within this document, use the FIND utility in your Web browsing program. (Most Windows-based programs include a FIND utility in the EDIT menu.) The description of any site with database subject searching will include the word "search".
