Lesson 4- Gale Reference Library

I chose history, then the Civil War and Abraham Lincoln as my subject search. We have just received a We the People Bookshelf Grant "A More Perfect Union" from ALA and I am looking for more resources to present programming on the subject. These resources can be used to help encourage students to check out the books we received and I can use Gale Reference Library to give them more information, especially to the students who are currently studying American history. What a great resource for our library because we have very few non-fiction books, particularly for the young students.

I typed in Civil Right Movement as that is prt of the We the People Bookshelf Grant and was amazed at the number of references. Again, a great resource for our probramming for the grant. The fact that we can listen to the articles is quite an advantage for students, especially if they have reading problems and gain better to listen to the words rather than read them.
