New Online Encyclopedia

Britannica
We now have Britannica Online!

Now, either in the library or at home, you can access encyclopedia articles, dictionary listings, atlases, timelines, newspaper articles, and multimedia. You can find links to this database on our Online Resources page in the Library catalog. One of the best features is being able to switch between the general Britannica Reference Center and the age-and-grade appropriate Britannica Kids with a simple mouse-click at the top of every page.

Here's a short list of what Britannica Online offers. Login to the library and check it out for yourself!
