Abstract

Collections of links to Web resources become difficult to maintain and use as they grow in size. Database‐driven, dynamic Web publishing solutions offer searching capabilities and display options, and enable librarians to maintain current and accurate information. Reference librarians at Lafayette College use FileMaker Pro database software to generate subject lists of Web‐based resources dynamically. Thanks to FileMaker Pro’s ease of use and built‐in Web publishing capabilities, attractive and functional dynamic Web content can be generated with no programming skills.
