A data what?
A database is an organized electronic collection of many sources, including print sources.
Okay...So what does that mean?
It means that you can search thousands of magazines, journals, newspapers, and books (among other kinds of sources) all from the comfort of your computer.
Pretty nifty, eh?
Here at Antelope High School, we have 2 databases. We also have a couple of electronic resources to help make your researching a little easier.
Take note! These databases and some of the electronic resources are password protected. Swing by the circulation desk in the library for the passwords and access information.
