What Holiday Do You Celebrate?

According to HistoryChannel.com, 98% of all Americans celebrate Christmas, Kwanzaa, or Hanukkah.  Check out the History Channel's "History of the Holidays" for fun facts on these celebrations, their histories and traditions. For more information on Holiday celebrations, check out your local libraries, suggested reading list for December, or reliable internet sites.  

 

Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center

The Library now has the Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center.  This database is ideal to use when you have research that relates to "hot button" topics or controversial ideas.  What most people find useful about this database is that it offers an argument for both sides of an issue.  The database also features such sections as statistics, magazine/newspaper articles, and will even suggest reliable web pages.  For a tutorial on how to use this database click here or email Sara Brown for help.
