The Tapir Gallery
Britannica likes us . . .
and we like them!
The Tapir Gallery won an award from Britannica.com for being "one of the best [sites] on the Internet when reviewed for quality, accuracy of content, presentation and usability." We're thrilled! These are goals we strive for, and goals we intend to pursue into the future. It's a mutual appreciation. For several years we've maintained an account with Britannica, because we find their service very useful for getting quality information online. When we're not studying tapirs, we like to look up some of our other interests - history, literature, music, and art.

Dear Webmaster:
Britannica.com is contacting you because our editors have selected your site as one of the best on the Internet when reviewed for quality, accuracy of content, presentation and usability.
As a result, we would like to offer you the opportunity to join in the launch of our new link exchange program. This program will give you and other top quality sites the opportunity to add a Britannica search box [now defunct] to your site and thereby provide your users with direct access to Britannica’s awarding-winning content, including the trusted and authoritative Encyclopaedia Britannica.
The search box will be accompanied by an award, which will tell visitors to your site that Britannica editors have rated one of the most valuable and reliable on the Internet, in the company of an elite group of Web sites. . . .
We know quality is always difficult to accomplish and maintain. Congratulations on being a selected member of the Britannica Internet Guide. . . .
Regards,
The Staff at Britannica.com
