Some Examples of Website Reviews

Here are some examples of website reviews from The Public Historianand elsewhere, along with links to the website. The review links are to ProQuest and JSTOR, you will need to be on campus or logged in remotely to use them. Contact the JFK library (not me) if you have any difficulty. Use these as a model for your own review--though some are shorter than yours should be.
