WRS -- National Science Digital Library

This week's spotlight is on the National Science Digital Library. The NSDL was created by the National Science Foundation as a resource for educators from Kindergarten all the way up to University level. It consists of a one-stop-shop for web resources in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, allowing for a simple keyword search returning materials from other digital libraries, NSF funded project websites, and outside sites reviewed by the NSDL.

A link on the main page takes you to the subsection specifically for University faculty. In adition to the search window, this page includes a resource spotlight, top picks, research articles on the role of digital libraries in education, and contact information. It also provides an events calender, with links to conference web pages, and a list of science related RSS Newsfeeds.
