•Covers
Makes readily available over three hundred full text databases, as well as secondary databases.
•Critical Evaluation
Searches can be basic, advanced or even visual, making this one the most flexible databases on the web. Ready access to an array of popular databases, including Academic Search Premier (widely used in high schools and colleges), as well as GeoRef, ERIC, and PsychInfo, make this an ideal database for campuses and individuals that cannot afford to pay a lot of subscription costs to get current information.

•Why did you include this book in you’re the titles you selected?
I wanted to include one database that has a good all-around feel, where teens can access information in many different ways, and in many subjects without having to change databases. I have keeping track at work of what the teacher use a great deal, and they tend to rely on ProQuest and EBSCO (with ready access to Academic Search Premier).
