Biography Reference Center
Today I researched the Biography Reference Center Database. I was really impressed by how easy this data base is to use. Basically all a patron does is type in a person of intrest then hit search and that persons biography comes up. I searched Cheif Roman Nose, and it brought up his biography. If I were writing a paper about him this database would be very helpful. It gives information about his physical appearance as well as a time sketch of his life and the big events that took place during his life time. It gives geological information as well, describing places he settled and so on. This database, like many others, offers a folder system. On the home page it has a featured biography section. Each biography gives you citations and the source that the biography came from. It isn't the most exciting database I have visited but it definately does the job!
