Review:
"This is an outstanding addition to young adult and school library digital databases, filling a need for grade- and age-appropriate online science resources. The multitude of information provided in the Toolbox and Help areas offers many ideas for lesson plans. The database may also prove valuable for general audience and basic undergraduate science research. Now if only Gale would automatically cross-reference Science Resource Center with Opposing Viewpoints and the various Student Resource Centers!"
