GOOGLE CO-OPS (Beta Version)

A Google Co-op is a custom search engine (CSE) made up of recommended web sites. The three co-ops listed below have been created to serve the research needs of USI students. Web Sites are added regularly by participating USI librarians and faculty. If you are a faculty member and would like to help populate any of these custom search engines for student use, please email libinstr@usi.edu. If you are a USI student and would like to recommend a particular web site that you have found useful for college-level research, feel free to email the address above. Most content consists of Meta-sites.
