- See separate list.
- See Networking , Jargon , newsgroups , Software Technology , Languages , Algorithms.
- CIA World Fact Book , India: Miscellaneous information , Thai-Yunnan: Davis collection.

- Few libraries currently have servers - you have to log on to them. But you can find out how with Art St.George's list of library systems , about "Library" in the internet resource guide , and the hytelnet index .
- Project Gutenberg : two classic books a month. See their explanations , the index and newsletter , books published in 1991 , 1992 , and reserved for the USA .
- BMCR classical reviews , Poetry , Scifi reviews . See also electronic journals .
- CIRM library (french)
- US weather , state by state. Also WAIS weather (around MIT :-).
- MIDI interfacing , Song lyrics (apparently disabled for copyright reasons)
- High Energy Physics , Astrophysics abstracts .
- US politics . Includes campaign 1992.
- Roget's Thesaurus . Experimental English dictionary .
- The Bible (King James version) , The Book of Mormon , The Holy Qur'an
- Coombs papers archive .

This is a list of some WWW servers. It does not include all servers, and note that one server machine can serve many databases. See also: background on WWW , and data available by other protocols , data by subject , how to make a new server , test servers . If servers are marker "experimental", you should not expect anything. The top of the list is in reverse chronological order of addition.
- National Center for Supercomputing Applictions, Urbana Champain, IL, USA. Experimental.
- Lyon, France.
- Kernfysisch Versneller Instituut (nuclear physics accelerator institute), Groningen, Netherlands. VMS server.
- Center of Mathematics and Computer Science, Amsterdam. FTP server for hypertext, including Gnu TeXInfo stuff as hypertext.
- Legal information: US Intellectual Property Statustes on line.
- ZEUS experiment at DESY, Hamburg, Germany. [.At least 2 servers]
- KEK, Tsukuba, Japan. Experimental only. [FTP hypertext, http server later)
- Experimental only as yet.
- The DTB information service includes the library system.
- The first global online hypertext magazine? Ed. Tom Boutell
- Stanford Linear Accelerator, California. HEP preprints database and LOTS more.
- Information service. Gateway to Hyper-G data.
- University of Arizona information
- Documentation from online and offline groups. Also at FNAL, very experimental servers in Theory , D0 , HEPnet management , ACCESS user consultancy .
- A server for public domain and CERN software for distribution to CERN members only. The documentation is public.
- Various groups, some more active than others - see the full list
- Information service - both in hebrew and English, asssumes a VT terminal with hebrew characters. See also their TeX database (July 1992).

- Experimental server (might move!) run by US HEPNet at FNAL.
- Italian physics institute (experimental server)
- Finnish Univerity Research Network.
- The Dutch High-Energy Physics center.
- Information from STING organised by Mike Sendall.
- The VMS help tree on node vxcrna.cern.ch .
- information about W3 itself, CERN entry point, and web overviews.
- The sunsite repository being set up bu UNC Chapel Hill. (Experimental)
- Private: Access from Xerox.com only. System33 document server.
- The information service from the Centrum fuer Informations und Sprachverarbeitung von Muenchen (don't panic: they also have it in English !) Experimental, very slow line :-(. Times out.
- Private web.
Looking by type of service (access protocol, etc) may allow to find things if you know what you are looking for.
List of TypeSeparate categorizations exist by subject and by organization
- List of W3 servers . See also: about theWWW initiative .
- Find WAIS index servers using the directory of servers , or lists by name or domain .
- Available directly in all www browsers.
- Campus-wide information systems, etc. See list of sites , about Gopher .
- See list by Scott Yanoff , Art St George's index (yet to be hyperized) etc.
- Available using the help gateway to WWW.
- See the ARCHIE -- An index of almost everything available by anonymous FTP. For example of an FTP site, see the uu.net server.
- A CWIS system from MIT. Very provisional access through a gateway may be turned off at any time. Gateway thanks to Linda Murphy/Upenn. See also more about techninfo .
