Just looking

Have you ever just wandered around a library- just looking?
You weren't looking for anything in particular, just browsing.
Browsing is a wonderful way to have that serendipitous discovery. Several databases offer "browsing" as a way to let your fingers wander through the on-line collection.

Encyclopedia Britannica (#52 on the NMTC list of GALILEO resources) offers several browsing options (you can find the browse portion by scrolling down and looking on the left of the screen). World Atlas is a travel junkies delight. Click on a country- the tabs offer you choices of maps for political, physical, land use, peoples, population, precipitation, and vegetation. Within the maps there are links to articles.

A delightful way to be an armchair traveler.

The password for home use of GALILEO is available to the citizens of Georgia from your librarian. Some resources noted in this BLOG are only available to NMTC patrons.
