Burritt Library’s monthly E-Resource Spotlight
Burritt Library has some great electronic resources and we’re looking to share them with you! This month we are spotlighting Gale’s classic literary databases. They have a brand new look, check it out and let us know if you have any comments or questions.
This month’s spotlight is on Ancestry Library edition. This has great information for genealogists and historians alike, and is just a whole lot of fun to play with.
The Burritt Library invites you to join us for lunch on us while you learn about one of our great electronic resources.
