Reference Extract – Librarian Based Web Search Engine
http://referencextract.org/

Reference Extract is envisioned as a web search engine, like Google, Yahoo and MSN. However, unlike other search engines, Reference Extracts will be built for maximum credibility by relying on the expertise and credibility judgments of librarians from around the globe. Users will enter a search term and get results weighted towards sites most often referred to by librarians at institutions such as the Library of Congress, the University of Washington, the State of Maryland, and over 1,400 libraries worldwide. Their grant will support planning for Reference Extract and building the foundation necessary to implement it as a large-scale, general user service.
