In an effort to keep you updated as to what has been added recently, we at the Cisco Educational Archives offer this handy-dandy weekly reference guide. Keep checking back weekly for our finds, which are all stored under each respective topic (hotlinked for your convenience).

If you would like to send us nifty pointers, information on your school, or comments in general, please send mail to cearch@metalab.unc.edu or use our mail form.


Happy New Year

Please Note: The CEARCH eXcite search engine is temporarily unavailable. The indexing process has been interrupted several times and therefore has been unable to keep track of what has been added to the files within our directories. The sysadmins of metalab are looking into the problem and we will let you know when it is fixed and back in running order. All apologies for any type of inconvenience this may cause.

The new metalab search engine may be found off of this page: http://metalab.unc.edu/search/ but it is not CEARCH specific. You may receive documents which are not under the CEARCH directories. There will soon be a unique CEARCH search when the indexing process is finished - and of course, we will let you know as soon as it is ready.
