National Science Foundation (NSF)

• The web portal for government science information recently added the National Science Digital Library (NSDL) to its collection. NSDL, created by NSF, provides access to exemplary resources for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education and research. Now users can search the databases and more than 1,800 websites previously available at Science.gov, as well as the 1.1 million records at NSDL, all with a single click. Go to http://www.science.gov.

• This toolbar allows you to put a search box from the National Science Digital Library (NSDL) into your internet browser. The NSDL is an online library that directs users to high-quality resources for all levels of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education. With the toolbar, you can search by audience, resource type, or subject, and go through NSDL-partner portals as well. If you find something online that you want to learn more about while using the toolbar, you highlight a keyword in the text, right-click on your mouse, and select “Search on NSDL.org” to find resources related to your topic. Download the toolbar from http://nsdl.org/toolbar.
