Like the look
The Student databases through Ebsco just look and feel friendlier...try out:
Student Research Center (SRC) which is EBSCO's interface designed for students in grades 6 through 12.
Through the Student Research Center (SRC), users can pre-determine which content sources (e.g., Magazines, Newspapers, Biographies, Country Reports, Film & Video) will be included with their search. They can also search their databases by topic heading, make use of an online dictionary and encyclopedia, explore the top searches of the day, and limit their search according to appropriate Lexile reading levels.

Where is the magazine?
Looking for the right magazine can be so frustrating. Magazines are thin and slippery. Stacked together they all look alike. So where is that magazine?

Why do we do that?
Have you wondered why people do the things they do? We are curious about each others habits. The professional sociologist studies human behavior and comes up with theories (the rest of us just gossip).
Check out the Sociological Collection (through GALILEO) for the theories.
Sociological Collection is an Ebsco database with more than 475 full-text titles. It provides information on all areas of sociology, including social behavior, human tendencies, interaction, relationships, community development, culture and social structure.
