Links The Internet provides a wonderful way to explore Wales and the Welsh. There are thousands of interesting websites covering every aspect of Welsh life, too many for us to maintain an up-to-date directory. Rather than duplicate the work done by others, we suggest using the Wales on the Web portal based at the National Library of Wales. This is an online directory of websites offering information related to Wales. Websites are checked for quality, and brief descriptions are included. It does not include commercial sites. Check the list below for this and some of our other favorite websites. We also provide links to NINNAU advertisers and to North American Welsh societies, organizations, and churches.

Work on this page is still in progress. Thank you for your patience.
