Lesson 4- Gale Reference Library

I chose the subject of history for this project; then to the Civil War and Abraham Lincoln. We have just received a We the People Bookshelf Grant titled "A More Perfect Union" and I thought this would be a great resource to go along with the books received. The books I found to provide more program ideas was fantastic!! These plus the Bookshelf Grant books will be wonderful resource to encourage students to learn about how our county was made strong thorugh the efforts of great leaders. What a fantastic addition this will be for our library as we don't have much in the way of non-fiction books, especially for young adults.

I typed in Civil Rights Movements, as that is part of the "A More Perfect Union" Bookshelf Grant subject and was amazed at the number of references. Again, a great resource for our programming for the grant books. The fact that we can listen to the articles is quite an advantage for students who struggle with reading or some do better at hearing rather than reading a subject.
