MARVELous Maine
I have always enjoyed Academic Premier database when looking for journals and articles. I found 16 on childcare, from childhood to children's technology and engineering. For a basic search I used "Today's child care needs" although the basic wording didn't receive any matches there were 3 results from the words I had typed. Out of the 3 given the newest was dated Sept. 2010 so not really to recent but it was very interesting from Health & Social Care in the Community; "Child Care Today: What We Know and What We Need To Know"
Onto Ebsco Ebooks: I wanted to be really off-the-wall for an interest so I typed "Elephants" to see what types of reading materials I would find. Only 1 items was offered "Building a House for Diversity: How a Fable about a Giraffe and a Elephant Offers New Strategies for Today's Workforce"1999. Getting the Full Text offered many choices on the right side of the text so I decided to email this to my personal email in pdf form.
To help students with Constitution Day I found 112 articles and not knowing what the students would be looking for I can only guess, however I did find one that I think might be of interest. "Representing Popular Sovereignty: The Constitution in American Political Culture," which covers public history, written document, symbol of democracy, and so on.
In searching for Nebraska information I received 43 results. Of those "America's National Historic Trails" looked interesting and could offer some information for Western study. Searching Oklahoma had a better result with 70 items. I liked "From Mounds to Mammoths: A Field Guide to Oklahoma Prehistory, " perhaps an unusual find.
I can't believe out time is over.... seems like just yesterday that I started our MARVELous Maine blog....hope you've all enjoyed the information and are able to enjoy discovering on your own OR stop by the library!!!
