Featured InfoGuide
What is an InfoGuide and how can it help my students?
An InfoGuide is a "report in a box". The library has gathered together books, databases, and authoritative websites, and direct links into the library catalog. This can make finding the information you need incredibly easy!
- The book lists are broken down by age.
- The links to the library catalog take you right into a search. No more guessing which words will work!
- The databases let you work right from home.
- The websites are all good ones, which we check out before adding them.
