The University of Hawaii at Manoa Library has a free trial to the ALA Guide to Reference. The trial runs through May 3, 2011.
Guide to Reference is a selective guide to the best reference sources, organized by academic discipline. An editorial team of reference librarians and subject experts have selected and annotated some 16,000 entries, both print and web-based, free and subscription.
