Remember… Modern libraries have many digital resources available including e-books, movies, TV series and online databases. Many school libraries subscribe to online databases students may use for free. – However, students will need a password for access. Online sources may be easiest to access, but they are often the most unreliable, unless an author’s credentials may be established.
