Abstract
Abstract World Wide Web sites consisting mainly of links to other Internet resources have begun to proliferate. These sites are valuable to library users and researchers because they bring together in a single Web site links to a comprehensive array of information resources. Because libraries may elect to include bibliographic records for these sites in their online catalogs, catalogers should be aware of some of the main aspects of cataloging this new type of resource. Catalogers should be aware of the main types and different characteristics of these sites, how to describe them in a bibliographic record, and how to assign appropriate subject headings and subdivisions for them.
