You may use a variety of sources, but you must use 3 print sources and 4 online database sources. Below you will find information about how to find books using the online catalog and information about the databases available to you.

__Databases__ __ Where to find sources online __- You may only use databases for your online research. One must be Discovery Streaming. Use the user name and password that your teacher gave you. (Sample username and password is Username:SampleStudent11 Password:sample) Next go to K-12 Databases. The username for all of our K-12 databases is: lcmhs. The Password is: bears. You may use the [|Britannica School Edition], Ebsco Student Resource Center , The Literary Reference Center, The History Reference Center, The Science Reference Center, The Points of View Reference Center and the Business Source Complete. You may not use each of these resources, but they are all options.

__Using the Catalog to find print sources__ Go to the catalog here. Once you are there, type a keyword into the search box. Click keyword search. This will bring you to a list of resources the library contains. Scroll through them. As you find titles you would like to look at, jot down the call numbers. Remember, we are not using fiction for our research, so make sure that the books you choose have nonfiction call numbers.

Finally, if you need help navigating any of these resources, please ask your teacher, Ms. Roddy or Ms. Brown.
