Recently I have had parents coming in to find non-fiction books for kiddos for research projects. After I help them find their book, I have been adding a quick 'how-to' to accompany our research databases, particularly the ones geared for elementary kids. So many parents are smiling and relieved after learning our databases provide another avenue for their kiddos to do their research homework.
95% of parents do not seem to know how easy it is to use our databases for homework help geared just for kids.
After going to the main web page and navigating to databases, choose alphabetical listing, then choose a link geared for the elementary ages. Parents are delighted to see that full text articles just for kids can be accessed and printed and then used as a research resource.
Sometimes keeping it simple is best. Our databases are free and can access reliable sources that often times Google cannot.
