Description: As one of the world's premier libraries, the Library of Congress has many staff members dedicated to helping members of the general public find the information they need. Along with providing in-person assistance in Washington, D.C., they also maintain this nifty site designed for persons looking for science reference material online. There is not much that isn't included on the site, as visitors can view webcasts on creating a school garden, look over research guides, and learn about "Everyday Mysteries". The "Everyday Mysteries" feature provides answers to questions such as "Who invented electric Christmas lights?" and it can be quite addictive. Visitors should also click on over to the "Science Reference Guides" area. Here they can look at comprehensive research bibliographies on chocolate, astronomy, electric power, and dozens more. With all of this material, visitors may also want to sign up for their RSS feed.
