SweetSearch


In contrast to Google's embedded advertising and tracking, SweetSearch "searches only the 35,000 Web sites that our staff of research experts and librarians and teachers have evaluated and approved when creating the content on findingDulcinea. We constantly evaluate our search results and 'fine-tune' them, by increasing the ranking of Web sites from organizations such as the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian, PBS and university Web sites."

- Dulcinea Media, Inc.

In other words… a safer search engine for students.  Click here to explore.
