World Book Online is a great place for students to explore the world around us in a safe and secure online environment. Students are exposed to World Book Online during their library lessons and are then encouraged to use World Book within the classroom as their first point of reference when conducting research. It contains thousands of information articles that are updated and fact-checked daily. There are also eBooks and many interesting and educational games and puzzles.
Our World Book subscription allows us to give you and your family access to this valuable reference source anywhere at any time.
