Groups on the Web
The information you find on the Web is as varied as the people who put it there. Groups that publish information on the Web include:

Libraries
The Library of Congress puts copies of important historical photographs and documents on their site called The American Memory Project.

LCC Library provides a wealth of high quality sources--journals, magazines, newspapers, electronic books and much more--that it makes available on the Library Website at www.lcc.edu/library

Colleges
Many colleges and universities offer online classes as well as provide space for faculty and students to produce Web pages. Information you need to register for classes can be found on the Web. You can also register for LCC classes online at www.lcc.edu

Government Agencies
In order to make information widely available, federal, state and local governments publish many documents on the Web. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) puts copies of tax forms on the Web.
Organizations
Organizations publish information about their purposes on the Web. For example, the American Lung Association educates about the dangers of smoking on its web page.
Companies
Many companies publish financial documents and press releases on their sites. They use the Web as an information and marketing tool.
People
With a computer and a phone connection, anyone, anywhere in the world, can publish on the Web.
