Kelley Armstrong at cci

10/22/2014

Kelley Armstrong spoke to a crowd of just over 100 people in our library yesterday morning and did they ever have lots of great questions for her! She shared with us a bit of what it is like to be a professional, published author and one lucky student won an advanced copy of her next book.

Thanks to the Collingwood Public Library for arranging Ms. Armstrong's visit to and to Jessica's Book Nook for providing books for students to purchase.

research at CCI just got even easier!

Need books or articles for your research project? Encyclopedia Britannica is now integrated with our book searching program making it a one stop shopping experience!

So if you need to find out about the planet Jupiter, for example, go to the Research tab on the library website, click on Find Books - Search CCI's catalogue to open up the search program. Type in "jupiter" in the search box to see what books we have in the library on that topic. BUT, and here is the cool new part: clicking on the "Britannica" link on the top left of the screen will take you to a list of encyclopedia articles that contain the word "jupiter" and then clicking on an article title takes you directly to that article in Britannica. No extra login required as long as you are at school using a school computer or the school's guest wireless. If you are at home you will still need to log into Britannica.

How easy is that?! In under a minute with only a few clicks you have found the resources you need to get you started on your next research project!

Need more help? Come see us in the library,
