Databases:

Our district is subscribed to a database called Science in Context. It is a curated collection of science topics. Search though Science in Context for their content on Charles Darwin. 

There is SO MUCH great content here. Try the following search terms: Charles Darwin, Galapagos, Origin of the Species, Evolution, Natural Selection. 

Many of our other databases are great places to continue your research. Click on the Research button above for links to our subscribed databases.

If you want to access subscribed databases from home, ask Miss Rimmer, Mr. Buemann, one of the library assistants, or your teacher for the link to a document that has access information on it. We cannot post the content online.
