Oxford Bibliographies Online is a tool designed to help busy
researchers find reliable sources of information in half the time
by directing them to exactly the right chapter, book, website,
archive or data set they need for their research.As of July 2011,
OBO has 17 live modules with another 16 set to launch in
2011-12.Each subject launches with between 50-100 articles or
entries, which is equivalent to a 4-volume print encyclopedia.In
each subject module, leading scholars from institutions around the
world have produced a literary guide to the most important and
significant sources in an area of study that they know best.All
entries receive multiple peer reviews and editorial board vetting
to provide reliable and balanced coverage.OBO is updated regularly,
with 50-75 articles added per year to each subject area. Updates
will also include revisions to existing articles.My OBO allows you
to create a personalized list of citations, save searches, and add
annotations.

It is selective, rather than exhaustive.Oxford Bibliographies
Online differs from most bibliographical resources in several
ways:It provides expert recommendations with critical supportive
text and annotation.The full context allows for understanding
connections between citations.It includes cataloging of non-print
material, especially online resources. Linking on multiple levels
facilitates movement to other resources, whether online or
available through a librarys catalogue.
