Supplied note:
"The Asian Studies WWW Virtual Library was established at the RSPAS, ANU on 24 March 1994, i.e. it has been operating for over 37% of the Internet's history. The AS WWW V is an authoritative, continuously updated hypertext guide and access tool to 'Asian Studies' scholarly resources on the Internet. The AS WWW VL presently is (or - for a period of time - has been) edited by a world-wide distributed team of volunteer "virtual librarians".
