[This page is comprised of links that are helpful to only
the librarians. Think of it mostly as a shared "Favorites"
file. A place where the librarians can keep articles and/or
websites that are really only useful for us. It is understood
that this page will not be filled up with links that would
be better on our library pages for patrons and the general
public. And the descriptive paragraphs are just that, not
annotations]
