where can i find reliable information about bagpipes?

For starters, there are a few websites devoted to bagpipes, just type in 'bagpipes' into a search engine! Here's a site to start you off:

http://www.hotpipes.com/pipes.html

A bit garish, but once you navigate through the advertising there are some quite interesting pages on the history of bagpipes from all over Europe, including Scotland.
