World Book Online: Student Encyclopedia Tutorial

Available through the eLibrary, World Book Online includes a number of different educational resources for learners of all ages. 

Online encyclopedias provide a convenient way to obtain accurate information on a variety of topics, written by experts and trusted authors. The different encyclopedias available through the World Book Online suite gear the information to different reading abilities. There are no advertisements to confuse or distract from the research topic at hand. Learners can choose to have the articles read aloud to them, just by clicking on the "ear" icon at the top of the article. Learners can also choose to enlarge the text, share, and save articles in a variety of formats––and even translate the article into many different languages.

The embedded video demonstrates how to use some of these and other features in the student module. For help using eLibrary resources from the Library, call 812-349-3050, or contact the Library online.
