Here's another project you can help me with - we're trying to think up little slogans to promote our online databases to high school students (in case you aren't aware of the databases they are a service that the library subscribes to that allows us to provide access to to jounral articles, reference books, multimedia, etc - they are really cool and have tonnes of info on every subject you can think of. We're really interested in promoting them because we have a limited selection of books and we don't always have info on topics that teens are researching, so the databases are good alternatives.)
Anyway, we're trying to think of little catch-phases to advertise the service. Some of the features we're trying to emphasise would include:
- 24/7 access
- info on current events/issues that we may not have in the library
- reliable information, controlled content - more reliable than the internet
- fully searching capabilities so they're just as easy to use a google
If anyone has some suggestions, I'd love to hear them. And by the way - if you'd like to know more about the databases or receive some help using them, let me know and we can set up a training appointment.
Thanks.
