[ISLMA-Share] best databases/electronic subscriptions for middle school?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Middle School library here.  We also use Gale and love it.  I also have
Worldbook and it's okay. It has some great features and my lower level kids
and bilingual kids do well with it.  I personally like the Citation Builder
that comes with it.  Think Easybib, but a school version where kids have to
actually find the information to create the citation.
