From the browse form, users can select one or more subject areas and limit by publication type such as reference works or dictionaries. All entries include subject terms, which are not hot-linked, and a description. Some entries also provide reviews, contents, and intended audiences. The strength of the Facts on File web site is its various sub-sections, which can be browsed. Facts on File provides a link to their science reference materials where librarians can browse subject areas.
Librarians can also browse just new titles, which includes reference materials.
Browsing is also available by type of reference material, such as encyclopedias. Searching is also available. Unlike the above publishers, the Fitzroy Dearborn web site needs tremendous work. While the limited information given about its publications is usually more than what's available on Books in Print , the amount of description is minimal compared to other publishers' web sites. Finally, dates are not only absent from the list of titles but are also sometimes missing in the longer entries.
