RM Living Library (Reference Suite)
Information UpdatedLiving Library is an excellent resource for all children to use. It brings together thousands of reference articles, pictures and multimedia clips from the UK's most respected publishers, all within a protected site. This means that you really can let children search for resources, and know that they will find ‘safe’, reliable information. Furthermore, as the site is designed for children to use, all articles are written in appropriate language. This means children will be able to assimilate and sort knowledge, not merely regurgitate useless facts that they don’t understand!
