Finding Background Information Collections of statistics, encyclopedias, dictionaries, and area or country handbooks provide data, an overview of a topic and short definitions of terms and ideas. They often contain references to other books and articles which can be used for further research. For example, use these resources to find basic information about the country you will be researching, and to find the names, dates and places of major explorations to choose for your project.

Very often the place you need to start is in The encyclopedia or the dictionary. If you can't spell a word, if you need to know which president came after Lincoln, if you need to know the life cycle of a beetle, I'll bet Mrs. Cassidy has the very book you need. Computers are wonderful - but books are just as valuable and sometimes easier to find the information in. After you have visited our LMC, you might need to check further into a subject by visiting one of the following sites. By the way, if you find a good site you want added to this page please email Mrs. Cassidy or, better yet, stop in for a visit. African American Study Author/Illustrator Biographical Dogsledding ...
