Default libc reference manual

Hi.
I'm looking for a bsd libc reference manual, but I can't find it.

In section-3's man pages I can find stdio (stdio.h) and the list of functions declared in it (and for each function there is a man page) but, for example, I can't find a man page for string (string.h), even if there is a man page for strlen and for every (I suppose) function declared in string.h.
So I don't know how to get a complete (and organized) list of all the functions of libc and their descriptions.
Can you help me?

Thank you victorvas.
Yes, I was looking for something like this. It's perfect.

I'm an irregular OpenBSD user.
Before your answer I just looked for libc in OpenBSD's man pages.
Now I'm looking also in FreeBSD and NetBSD's man pages and they're different, more complete about libc.
I don't know the reason of such a difference.
Perhaps there is a package for the complete documentation, but I don't know its name.
