Online Database November Calendar

Online Database November Calendar

While many students enjoy reading print books for personal inquiry and interest, the majority of academic research is conducted digitally, including use of our district’s valuable online databases. Since there are so many offerings, the library’s November calendar highlights various databases available for use both on and off campus. If you need any help with these resources, contact our WHHS Teacher Librarian Ms. Sannwald.
