--------------- The Virtual Acquisition Shelf and News Desk
Remember when the Internet was called the Information Super Highway? The Virtual Acquisition Shelf and News Desk takes that phrase as its golden rule and speeds past all the pretty stuff and the silly stuff on today's Web to deliver information at lightening speed.
Created for information professionals, the site offers daily synopses of reports from sources as wide as the Congressional Research Service to the Professional/Scholarly Publishing Division of the American Publishing Association, then links you to related articles, tools and the full text. With archives dating back to March 2001 and to The Virtual Chase, for legal research on the Web, the site is a comprehensive reference tool for info professionals.
