There is plenty of good Go material out there (including Sensei's Library ;-), so how do you determine what books, websites, professional games, ... are suited for your level and what kind of study habits are most effective?

1. Find yourself a teacher

at Go teachers

2. Self-study

If you're looking for a guide to self-study, you want to read the Beginner Study Section.

Here are some links to individual homepages; these links will point you to the advice of some very strong players.:
