You think a children's resource might be too easy, too light for your research?
Try Funk & Wagnalls New World Encyclopedia. It's an Ebsco product. The search screen is colorful. You are offered choices for limiting your search.
There is a Teachers link which takes you to a search page that has a very similar look to the standard Ebsco search pages - but it's a bit friendlier.
Instead of a publications tab there is a Title Lists link (took me a few minutes to figure out that was where to go to find the publications used in the database).
Funk and Wagnalls turns into Searchasaurus and it does search Academic Search Premier - and it looks "easier".
You'll need the password to access GALILEO at home. Your Georgia librarian can give you the current password.
