The World Wide Web is an increasingly rich source of SGML information. We highly recommend Robin Cover's SGML Web Page at http://www.sil.org/sgml/sgml.html, which has links to a myriad of SGML-related topics, including information on many of the DTDs, FOSIs, and other applications widely used in the government, commercial, and academic arenas, as well as an extensive SGML bibliography. Because the list of Web sites continues to grow, search on
