http://coombs.anu.edu.au/WWWVL-AsianStudies.html
Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies,The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia
Supplied note:"The project, initiated by T. Matthew Ciolek, was launched on the 24th March 1994 to provide expert and trustworthy information about online resources in the field of Asian Studies. In course of the ten years of its uninterrupted online operations, the project has evolved into a world-wide collaborative network of individuals, teams and institutions. In the early 2004 it comprised 42 volunteer editors maintaining a regularly updated, large-scale archipelago of 79 online information modules, so-called 'virtual libraries', specializing in keeping track of online information about a distinct geographical area, or a topic.
