World Book Online
The Library is pleased to announce that we have a school account with World Book Online information service. World Book has been a trusted learning resource since 1917.
There are two (age appropriate) services available for homework, research and general interest. Each provides a welcome alternative to many students over reliance on Wikipedia.
World Book Kids features content and tools developed especially for young students. The site offers simple navigation, easy-to-read articles,
multimedia, comparison tools, interactive games and activities, and teacher resources.
World Book Student, the redesigned and upgraded version of World Book Online Reference Centre, includes the articles of the World Book
Encyclopedia, a Biography Centre, dictionary, atlas, an extensive multimedia collection, thousands of editor-selected Web sites, correlations to
curriculum standards, and much more.
How to Access
Both World Book Online services can be accessed via the web - both at home and at school.
