We are proud to announce that an upgraded version of the Argus
Clearinghouse is now available at:

        http://www.clearinghouse.net/

The upgrade includes an extensive new subject classification scheme,
improved navigation, and a fresh look-and-feel.  Please do take a look and
let us know what you think.


WHAT IS THE ARGUS CLEARINGHOUSE?  Established by librarians in 1993 as The
Clearinghouse for Subject-Oriented Internet Resource Guides, the Argus
Clearinghouse is a virtual library of over a thousand topical guides for
researchers and others with high-end information needs.  The Argus
Clearinghouse is maintained as a free service by staff at Argus
Associates, an information architecture consulting firm with roots in
librarianship and information science.

WHERE DO THE GUIDES COME FROM?  Guides are created, submitted, and
maintained by specialists from around the Internet.  Argus staff selects
approximately 10% of all submissions, and rates them according to five
criteria before including them in the Argus Clearinghouse.  All are
encouraged to submit their guides for inclusion.
