Updating broken links and found that Dr. L. Kip Wheeler's page Literary Terms and Meanings had moved when he moved from UOregon to Gonzaga.

The rest of his site is chock full of information, devoted to Comp-Grammar-Research-Literature due to his educational bent. I found a huge cache of useful information for writers, even if they aren't in one of Dr. Wheeler's classes.

How about this one? http://guweb2.gonzaga.edu/faculty/wheeler/gram_passive_voice.html - Wheeler's rant titled Passive Voice (Why It is Evil and How to Recognize It.)

Or this one? http://guweb2.gonzaga.edu/faculty/wheeler/resource_medieval_lit.html - Medieval Lit resources, with links to "Heresy Handout: A Convenient Guide to Eternal Damnation" (.pdf), Middle English Vocabulary, Numerology (.pdf), "The Seven Deadly Sins: A Convenient Guide to Eternal Damnation" and more.

This site can eat up your afternoon, if you're not careful.

Also added these links:

FirstGov - official government gateways (state and Federal)
http://www.firstgov.gov/. FirstGov links to government resources across a wide range of subject areas and needs.

St. Ambrose University - Best Information on the Net
http://library.sau.edu/bestinfo/alpha.htm. BIOTN is sorted alphabetically, by major and by "hot topics" for papers. The "Art" section, f'rex, is further divvied up to sort the links by Art Education, Art Images, Events and Competitions, Exhibits, Galleries, Museums, Indexes to Art Resources, Individual Artists, Photography Sites and St. Ambrose University Art Department. Wonderful resource.

Added a link to Marylaine Block's excellent What is NOT on the Net to the collection of "how cool are libraries or what?" box on the intro page.
http://www.qconline.com/myword/notnet.html

Block's Web site is a wonderful resource. Added a link to http://www.marylaine.com/ (Librarian Without Walls) in the "Unsorted" section of the [Reference] page.

Also added a link to David Novak's excellent Information Research FAQ
http://www.scinet.org/spire/faq.htm. For some reason the Spire Project Web site is not available, so this link is through the scinet.org mirror site.
