I recommend starting with High School In Context because it has a wide array of sources on a number of topics. Next, search the library catalog. You may also have luck with CQ Researcher and Opposing Viewpoints in Context. Finally, you can find a more specific database by choosing a search engine on the Online Resources page. Questions? Please email Ms. Roberson at amy_roberson@yarmouthschools.org or stop by the library for help!
High School Research in Context
This is a general research database that covers a variety of subjects and content areas. If you are not sure where to start, try this!
Alexandria is our library catalog. You may use it to find books and other materials we check out via the library.
This database, along with Opposing Viewpoints in Context, is a great resource for investigating current events, issues, and topics. The reports are written by experienced journalists, footnoted and professionally fact-checked. Full-length articles include an overview, historical background, chronology, pro/con feature, plus resources for additional research.
This database, along with CQ Researcher, is perfect for researching multiple perspectives of current events, issues, and topics.
