EB School Site Among “10 Best Digital Resources”
Calling it one of the “must-have” products for the fall, School Library Journal has just named Britannica Online School Edition one of the “10 Best Digital Resources” for 2009. Take it away, SLJ:
“Britannica Online School Edition has tipped the scales of online encyclopedias by including four different products within their Online School Edition. . . . With the addition of this latest product, Britannica has expanded their encyclopedic line to reach every user at every level, while still providing educators with Teacher Resources, additional learning materials, digital images, video clips, maps, and much more. It only takes a few minutes of online research (or maybe some interactive fun) within any of the Britannica modules to discover why this online encyclopedia has advanced to the head of the class.”
