Just a note for schools and libraries with patrons interested in the Harry Potter series: The Harry Potter Lexicon (http://www.i2k.com/~svderark/lexicon/), a browsable online encyclopedia of the Harry Potter universe, now includes a search function that allows students to research specific characters, spells, items, and so on. The Lexicon includes etymological information, various time lines of events in the saga, detailed analysis of some of the mysteries and unanswered questions in the books, and much more. There are many lists including lists of spells, creatures, and characters. The Lexicon is continually being updated and exanded to include more and more information, including up to date changes such as Lily Potter's maiden name, which JK Rowling revealed in an interview a couple of weeks ago. There are links to some of the best sites for researching Harry Potter-related topics, including mythical creatures and the sources of the words Rowling has created. Your students will find the Harry Potter Lexicon to be a great research tool and a fun place to browse and read about their favorite underage wizard.
