VT Online Library
by Camille -6th Grader
Recently, one of our school librarians, Mrs. Wade, had all the Incredibles community sit in the library with a notepad. She showed us how to get to the Vermont Online Library. The VT Online Library for St. Albans is a place where students and adults can get facts for research papers. You can open magazines, articles, newspapers, charts, graphs, images, maps, flags and seals to find the information you’re looking for.
There are over twenty resources, and at least a quarter of them are for kids. The Incredibles found this site creditable and useful. I think it’s a great resource and highly recommend it.
I would like to thank Mrs. Wade for not only introducing this to us, but for also showing us how to get there and giving us examples on how to use it appropriately. It was very nice of her to take some of her time to help us students in our learning.
Next time you write a research paper, ask our librarians how to get to the Vermont Online Library!
