Engineering Web Portals.
Besides engieering virtual libraries or library journal subscriptions/databases,
there are engineering portals that provide access to a broad array of
resources and services, such as e-mail, forums, search engines, online
product catalogs and job information. Listed below is a short list
of these portals. While less research oriented than engineering
virtual libraries, they are important sites for engineers in obtaining
information. Roddy MacLeod covers many more portals in his
"Panorama of Engineering
Portals" article (MacLeod, 2000) just page down to the "TIPS AND TECHNIQUES"
section.
