Welcome to a new school year! This year, we’ve added a new online database to our line-up — Daily Life Through History Premium, provided by Greenwood Publishing.
This database combines content from the Daily Life Through History and World Cultures Today databases. Together, they are a rich source of historical background that can also be connected to contemporary society around the globe. Daily Life Through History Premium provides access to material from hundreds of Greenwood’s print titles and is especially strong in social history resources. It will be valuable for many projects in a variety of subject areas. The database also includes primary documents, maps, timelines, and many folk tales and fairy tales from around the world.
We are working on a guidesheet to help you navigate this new database and take advantage of all that it offers. We will post the completed guidesheet here on the blog and print copies will be available in the library.
You can access this database from home or school by using this URL:
http://dailylife.greenwood.com
Stop by the library and pick up a “blue sheet” with the usernames and passwords for all 10 of our subscription databases.
