Beyond Wikipedia

Looking for information online? Realizing that Wikipedia was a great starting point, but looking for more? First, you might want to check out our Databases to dig into the hidden web (and this really is a good choice).

Another option, if you’re looking online, is to check out some of the sites listed in College Degree dot com writer Jessica Hupp’s piece: When Wikipedia Won't Cut It: 25 Online Sources for Reliable, Researched Facts.

Some of the sites include Classic Encyclopedia, which Hupp describes as:

Classic Encyclopedia: This online encyclopedia is based on the 1911 11th edition of the Encyclopedia Brittannica. Although quite old, it offers an in-depth look on more than 40,000 items, and it's widely considered to be the best encyclopedias ever written.

Or maybe Mathematica:

Mathematica: Mathematica, the Wolfram Library Archive, offers research and information on math, science, and more.
