What Can I Do With My Library Barcode?


Students in Halton are fortunate to have access to a multitude of online resources, many of which can be accessed at home.  This week Library barcodes were distributed to all of the students at Florence Meares.  The big question of the week was "What Can I Do With My Library Barcode?".  The answer is, access awesome online resources at home.  Some of the fantastic resources students can access at home include:

-BookFlix
-HDSB audiobooks and ebooks
-Grolier Online (search 8 constantly updated encyclopedias)
-Funk & Wagnalls New World Encyclopedia
-Kids Search (popular kids magazine database)
-Searchasaurus (kids online encyclopedia)
-Primary Search
-Canadian Reference Centre
-Canadian Student Research Centre
-Career Cruising
-History Reference Centre
-Science Reference Centre
-Literary Reference Centre
-Universalis (French encyclopedia)

Many of the above resources can be accessed through Elementary Internet Tools and the Information Databases page on the Halton District School Board Library Website.  Try one of the above resources today and see what you've been missing.

If you have any question, please send Mr. C an email.
