research resources for all

EBSCOhost is the college research
database currently in use at most U.S.

is to prepare them for college
research.
EBSCO has created an aligned system
of databases to help students learn
about research from the earliest ages.
See Searchasaurus for elementary
students, Kids Search for middle and
upper elementary school, and the
Student Research Center for middle
and high school. Each database is
available in many languages, including
Spanish.
