You can use structured databases such as Oracle to store resource data such as Glossaries in an organized fashion with (well-known technology) to generate HTML on the fly

Note WebFoil illustrates that computer generated HTML allows one to track changes in standards and exploit new features quicker
|
Can also store unstructured information as illustrated by Usenet computer and other relevant newsgroups
|
Use the powerful Search engines with domain (i.e. particular courses) specific keywords . These can be attached to commercial (e.,g. altavista) or inhouse Web Search sites so search confined to subset of curricula material

Object databases can be very useful for VRML and other data which is naturally of this form such as images and output of simulations
