When Google overwhelms

Sometimes using Google is like trying to drink from a fire hydrant. Too much information comes pouring out. There are portals that help narrow the search to sites that have been vetted by a person for a specific audience. Kids Click and SKS Web Select are two portals on GALILEO that limit web sites to those that are "real".

Going through Kids Click to Literature and then selecting poetry- there are 18 links to poetry sites - the reading level is noted.

To use GALILEO at home you'll need to get the current password from your Georgia librarian.
