Evaluated web sites
Our online catalog lets you search for high-quality, evaluated web sites using WebPath Express.

These searches will produce a small set of results than are available on Google, but you can have greater confidence that the sites are appropriate for student research.

To find sites that offer background information that is easy to read, narrow your search by grade level Middle and doman .edu, .org, or .gov.
