Mike Mellinger was rather disturbed that I hadn't included a URL for DRA's webcat when I sent out my announcement note the other day. The omission was totally unintentional, and I assured Mike that I planned to distribute more URL's as I found them, and hoped that subscribers to the list would do the same. So here are a couple more vendor starting points:
For DRA: http://www.dra.com/products/draweb/draweb.HTM http://myriad.middlebury.edu http://utcat.library.utoronto.ca:8002
For VTLS: http://www.vtls.com/virtua/index.html
For other WebZ interfaces:
OCLC: http://tikal.dev.oclc.org:2000/
CNIDR: http://vinca.cnidr.org/reference/reference.html
Finally, let me play devil's advocate, and suggest something to help people "think outside the box": The Movie Database. I like to imagine the Citation Indexes implemented this way. Pick the site closest to you:
United Kingdom: http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Movies/ Germany: http://www.leo.org/Movies/ Australia: http://ballet.cit.gu.edu.au/Movies USA (East): http://www.msstate.edu/Movies/ USA (West) http://rte66.com/Movies
The movie database is a volunteer effort and, to some extent, the quality of the data reflects this. But it's free.
