Why should I use Web sites?
How do I find good Web sites?
Start by reviewing the Web Searching Guide for expert advice on the best search engines--both general and specialized.
Of particular note are the "academic web resources" which includes a link to Google Scholar and other search engines that focus on, credible, scholarly information available on the Web.
note: no single search engine comes close to indexing all of the Web. Be sure to search two or three different search engines if you want to be thorough.
