The tools that ELM provides at the public library I work for are great tools! The EBSCO data bases are some that I recommend regularily. Many people will come in to the library looking for information about a current topic an these are the tools I help them use. Information about medical issues are generally not in books – they take too long to publish – and the information is then out of date – so the EBSCO data bases are a great resource.
I haven’t used the Discovering Collection much- but primary resources are not always easy to find. Every middle school teacher should know about the tab in this data base!
