Internet and broadband and net neutrality

The search engine I used was the omnifile database on the SCU library database website.  I used it because it has always given me quality results in past research assignments along with the fact that it is a large resource for scholarly articles.
I first searched "Internet" into the database.  I then searched within those results for "broadband".  To narrow it down even further I searched "net neutrality".  46 results came up and I decided to continue my research from there. 
The best URL that I found was http://0-vnweb.hwwilsonweb.com.sculib.scu.edu/hww/results/getResults.jhtml?_DARGS=/hww/results/results_common.jhtml.35
There are two articles under this website that I used to gain the information for the topic of my research.

The individual responsible for this research is Lee L. Selwyn; Helen E. Golding.  Federal Communcations Law Journal
The other article I looked at is written by  Brooke Ericson.  Administrative Law Review

These sites are journals that have been uploaded to the Internet. 

The information written by Selwyn and Golding was published in 2010 and the article written by Ericson was also published in 2010.

There is a great deal of explanation about how the broadband network came into existence and how the Internet services have become more advanced to benefit the society.  These websites help explain the functions of the Internet in our society and the ability of the public to access the Internet on a daily basis.

Everything I found on these articles was very reliable and thorough on the topic of broadband and net neutrality within the search of the Internet
