@article{Carroll_Kaelber_2010, place={Washington DC: American Sociological Association.}, title={GUIDE TO WEB RESOURCES FOR SOCIAL PROBLEMS}, url={https://trails.asanet.org/article/view/guide-to-web-resources-for-social-problems}, abstractNote={The second edition of this manual — published in 1997 — included a two-page list of Sociology Resources on the World Wide Web (WWW). By 2001 the quantity of sociologically relevant web resources had expanded so much that the Guide to Web Resources in the third edition grew to 20 pages. We shortened this version of the guide by cutting back on resources explaining the web and how to use it, because that knowledge is widely spread today. We chose the sites based on four primary criteria. First, and most important, we chose sites based on how much sociologically relevant information and data they provided. Second, we selected sites that linked to other sociology and social problems-related sites. Third, we included some provocative sites to challenge our students’ thinking, or even our own, and we tried to provide some balance in the sites. Finally, mindful of how often web sites go down or URLs change, we tried to choose relatively stable sites. As of June 2007 these links were all operating. }, journal={TRAILS: Teaching Resources and Innovations Library for Sociology}, author={Carroll, Walter and Kaelber, Lutz}, year={2010}, month={Apr.} }
