SOME BEGENNING RESPONSES ABOUT SUBSCRIPTION DATABASES FOR ELEMENTARY LEVEL: I like Britannica Online and K12 Teaching and Learning Center. Betsy Ruffin librarian-technologist Cleburne ISD Cleburne, TX betsy.ruffin@cleburne.k12.tx.us David - I work in a 4th & 5th grade school, and I like Grolier. Nice selection of encyclopedias, and they have a decent atlas. Some articles are hard for the student in upper elementary but should be good for middle kids. We just started using SIRS Discoverer for magazine and newspaper articles. --Jackie Jackie Richardson Library Media Specialist Main Street School Irvington, NY 10533 jacqueline.richardson@irvingtonschools.org 914.591.1961 In no particular order--depending on the unit and the students' needs: ABC Clio CultureGrams EBSCOhost NewsBank Opposing Viewpoints Best regards, Martin Swist mswist@asij.ac.jp Middle School LMS Middle School XC Coach The American School In Japan 1-1-1 Nomizu, Chofu-shi, Tokyo "The heart is a little to the left." (Rev.) William Sloane Coffin SIRS Discoverer, then Ebsco. SIRS takes a littel more time to post entries because they add value (summaries). So if you need this weeks article, use EBSCO Maureen S. Irwin, Library Director Rye Country Day School Rye, New York 10580 msirwin@optonline.net Any book you have not read is a new book. Our Middle School librarian loves Net Trekker (and she turns off the Wikipedia option on it). World Book Online is great and has a kids option. Michelle -- Michelle S.
