State Agency Databases

State Agency Databases is a wiki sponsored by the American Library Association's Government Documents Round Table (GODORT). It arose from the recognition of the following fact: Much government information, especially information relating to state agencies, is part of the so-called "invisible Web". This means that search engines cannot retrieve results from within these databases. As a solution to this difficulty, State Agency Databases provides links to all state agency databases, arranged alphabetically by state, and thereby makes finding state agency Web sites much easier.

State Agency Databases is a valuable resource, but keep in mind that it is a wiki, and therefore anyone can edit it.
