Following a Free Trial, we recently added two new databases to our electronic reference materials. One is called Culture Grams, the other is the SIRS Researcher.

Culture Grams is useful for many areas, where finding out about a country and the customs of the citizens is necessary for understanding.

The SIRS Researcher is a well-respected grouping of articles on leading issues, which are often used for research papers, opinion papers, and debate questions.

Last year we purchased the AP Images database, which features materials from the Associated Press over many years. It hasn't been used extensively, but it should be useful for many types of projects. Have a look.
