Explore Britannica!
The Britannica Online Library Edition is divided into three distinct levels:
Often in the library we will utilise the first keyword search option to find information, but it is also good to take the opportunity to highlight additional features to patrons by selecting a specific homepage.
For example in Britannica Junior, listed under Features, you will find New! Geography Explorer whereby the junior patron can "Help Jog build a wall map". Working through different stages children add Continents, Seas/Oceans, Mountains, Rivers and Places to a world map, using a click and drag technique. Great for both computer skills and general knowledge. A fun way to learn!
Happy exploring!
