<p><font color="008000"><b style="">Does OSLIS ha<font color="008000">ve</font> information literacy ebooks?</b></font></p>
Yes, <font color="0000FF">25 ebooks about information literacy are now available <font color="0000FF">
o</font>n OSLIS</font>. Some of the titles are aimed at upper elementary students, like
<i style=""><a href="http://cherrylakepublishing.com/shop/show/10598" target="_blank">Getting Around Online</a></i>, and others at middle schoolers and a bit older, like
<i style=""><a href="http://cherrylakepublishing.com/shop/show/10352" target="_blank">Write It Down</a></i> (about note taking). In some cases, a book is appropriate for either audience or for more than one step of the research process.
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="008000"><b style="">Where do I find the ebooks?</b></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The ebooks are linked in the Resources box for the relevant research sub-step in the Learn to Research section of OSLIS. For example, elementary folks can click on
<a href="http://elementary.oslis.org/learn-to-research" target="_blank">Learn to Research</a>, any step (maybe
<a href="http://elementary.oslis.org/learn-to-research/plan" target="_blank">Plan</a>), and any sub-step (maybe
<a href="http://elementary.oslis.org/learn-to-research/plan/plan-form-guiding-questions-wp" target="_blank">
Create My Questions</a>). For a secondary audience, click on <a href="http://secondary.oslis.org/learn-to-research" target="_blank">
Learn to Research</a>, any step (maybe <a href="http://secondary.oslis.org/learn-to-research/define" target="_blank">
Define</a>), and any sub-step (maybe <a href="http://secondary.oslis.org/learn-to-research/define/define-your-project-parameters" target="_blank">
Define Your Project Parameters</a>). Note that there are a few sub-steps with no corresponding ebooks.
