There is an amazing number of titles in the GVRL. You can obtain so much information from this site. I choose the Gale Encyclopedia of Cancer, 3rd Ed. This was a 2 volume set. Just looking at the index leads you to areas you might want to research. I searched colon cancer because of family history and found so much information. It was nice to see related articles to research and also newer versions than what we may have in our reference collection. Very up to date information.
When looking up "The adventures of Huckleberry Finn" you could easily find literary criticism. You can also find plot summaries, historical overviews and the different sources. This would be so helpful for students doing research as there is an amazing amount of information to obtain. It was also easy to find what foods contain zinc. This source told me the foods that contain zinc that are easier for the body to absorb and also why we need zinc.
I will recommend this to anyone doing research from middle school students to adults.
That's great news, Shelly! Glad you found this one so useful. We think it greatly adds to your library's reference collection. Thanks for the comments.
