knowledge.
As the Library
grew in size,
however, it
became increasingly
difficult to
locate relevant
material. The
poet Callimachus
solved the
problem by
compiling a
catalogue called
The Pinakes.
On a far smaller
scale, these
Web pages hope
to provide
a similar function
for Internet
resources,
by linking
to the major
subject gateways."
