Project Wombat

Ever been stumped with a tough reference question? I know I have. When I can't seem to verify a quotation or think of the best way to find specific historical data, Project Wombat is one of the things that comes to mind. It's a discussion list for those difficult to answer reference questions. It's a public list in that everyone can submit questions and answers are archived for future reference. They helped me out a lot with a couple of questions from my reference classes in library school.

Just wanted to share.
