Online Bibliographic & Writing Tools for Anthropology

Links for most of the sites described in A Bibliographic Search Strategy for Anthropology, the companion page to this one, are presented below.  I have also included additional links to sites related to writing.  Of course, many of these links require that you have UA library privileges. I recommend that prior to beginning a work session you log on to the UA library site with your MyBama userid and password.
