Encyclopedia Britannica

Today I researched Encyclopedia Britannica. I think this database is the best one i have looked at so far! In some of my Gen Ed. classes i remember having to find an article to write about. The writing part was easy for me but actually finding an article that was worth writing about was a complete different story. This database is great for just that. Its a collection of articles or blogs rather that are intellectual and chosen individually for this database. The database is really manageable meaning any student could easily access it and find just what they are looking for, and if they aren't sure what they are looking for it would also be great for getting some inspiration. It covers topics from Fashion week to Emotional Robots to Declining Great American Cities. It has a search option and it also has a great homepage that offers links to Top catagories and top authors. It includes videos in some of its articles which i thought was pretty neat. You can share posts that you are interested in on social networks like facebook and stumbleupon. I think it is a pretty interesting database and it seems to have something for everyone.
