The February edition of Peter's Digital Ready Reference Shelf
is available on the Gale Group website. These reviews are available free
of charge to all users at:
        http://www.galegroup.com/free_resources/reference/peter/

This month Peter looks at movie databases:

[1] Official Academy Awards Database
This Oscar database is more than a day late and much more than a dollar
short.

[2] New York Times Movie Reviews
A free archive of more than 5,000 reliably-sourced reviews featuring good
browse and search options which are not perfectly implemented. Reviews are
complemented with biographies, filmographies and other lists from the All
Movie Guide.

Peter Jacso is a member of the Internet Librarian Hall of Fame
(http://www.rlc.dcccd.edu/lrc/hofprevious.htm). His in-depth reviews are
illustrated with dozens of screenshots and provide a multi-linked virtual
walk-through of the databases he evaluates.  Jacso was the 1998 recipient
of the Louis Shores-Oryx Press Award of the Reference and User Services
Association for his discerning database reviews.

See the Archives on the Gale site for databases previously reviewed:
