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.
Please note: 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.
Have a question for our CEARCH FAQ? This will
be an index of questions
and answers to the entirety of the CEARCH site - including how to submit
your work for inclusion on this site as well as where you can find other
information if it's not available here. Drop a line to cearch@metalab.unc.eduwith your
comments.
