hello!

can you post your bookmarks about:
- book repositories
- journal repositories
- database repositories
- electronic material repositories
etc

for example, when you are looking for all possible books about a specific subject, you just search at amazon? or what else?

thanks!

Yes, for book I guess Amazon is the best one. For Journals you would need a subscription to access the papers, but just to search try Google Scholar, or Microsoft Academic Search.
