Re: [LM_NET] GEN: Shortcut to creating web pathfinders or webpages

["Dr. Michael Bell" <drmichaelbell@VIRTUALLRC.COM>]

For a list of resources of the causes of the Civil War you might want to
search the Virtual Learning Resources Center (http://www.virtuallrc.com). 
I searched its American History section using the term 'causes of the
Civil War' and received a number of relevant hits.

The Virtual LRC is both a human-edited directory and a meta-search engine
that searches exclusively information sites previously recommended by
teachers, librarians, and library and educational consortia world-wide.
