Project Bartleby: the Public Library of the Internet is a major 
effort by Columbia University to create electronic texts of 
publications that are in the public domain.  The Project 
Bartleby texts are subject to exacting editorial review to 
ensure that they are rigorously faithful reproductions of the 
original works.  One of the goals for the project, as stated by 
editor-in-chief Steven van Leeuwen, is to provide electronic 
texts that are suitable for ". . . pleasure reading and 
professional scholarship." Currently available works include:

Bartlett, John. 1901. _Familiar Quotations_, 9th ed.

Chapman, George, trans. 1857. _The Odysseys of Homer_.

Dickinson, Emily. 1896. _Poems_.

_Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents of the United States_. 
1989.

Keats, John. 1884. _Poetical Works_.

Melville, Herman. 1853. _Bartleby, the Scrivener. A Story of 
Wall-street_.

Shelley, Percy Bysshe. 1901. _Complete Poetical Works_ 
(Under Development).

Strunk, William, Jr. 1918. _The Elements of Style_.

Whitman, Walt. 1900. _Leaves of Grass_.

Wilde, Oscar. 1881. _Poems_.

Wordsworth, William. 1888. _Complete Poetical Works_.

The _Selected Abstracts and Bibliography of International Oil 
Spill Research 1994_ has been mounted on the LSU gopher and 
web servers.  This extensive bibliography was produced by the 
Oil Spill Research and Development Program (OSRADP) and will 
be available only in electronic form.  The files are available in 
both a plain text version, broken down alphabetically by 
author, and in the original WordPerfect 6.0 for Windows format 
(2.1 megs).  At this time, no search engine for the bibliography 
is available via the LSU Libraries' gopher or WWW servers.

The Consortium for International Earth Science Information 
Network (CIESIN) and the World Bank are providing 
experimental Internet access to three major World Bank 
datasets.  World Bank Dataset Guides provide detailed 
information about priority datasets of the World Bank.  Each 
guide, accessible through World Bank's Directory Services, 
offers an overview of the dataset and details on its source and 
history; access to variable lists and dictionaries, if available; 
and guidance in using the dataset and in deciding whether it is 
appropriate for a particular application.  In many cases, the 
guide will provide an interface for analytic browsing and GIS 
functionalities.  World Bank Dataset Guides include the 
following information:

Abstract/Summary Information--an abstract or summary of 
the information found in the dataset with a link to the 
originating or developing organization, if available;

Archival/Access Information--information on the 
organization(s) responsible for archival work and on where and 
how you can access the dataset;

Dataset Variables/Descriptions--a list of variables and their 
descriptions;

Data Acquisition/Collection--information on how, where, and 
why the datasets were collected;

Related Datasets--a list of related datasets with links to 
their dataset guides, if available;

Contacts/References--points of contact;

Keywords--words by which the dataset guides can be indexed.

Currently available or soon-to-be released World Bank Dataset 
Guides are as follows:

The _Electronic Journal of Combinatorics_ (ISSN 1077-8926) 
is a refereed, all-electronic journal that welcomes papers in 
all branches of discrete mathematics, including all kinds of 
combinatorics, graph theory, discrete algorithms, etc.  Papers 
are electronically submitted and distributed in any flavor of 
TeX or as PostScript files.  Research articles as well as 
articles of more general interest are published under different 
headings in the journal.  Refereeing of papers is conventional, 
aside from being carried out via e-mail.  Publication is 
immediate following acceptance and filling out copyright 
forms.  A disk archive of the contents of the _Electronic 
Journal of Combinatorics_ is maintained by the American 
Mathematical Society.
