Off The Shelf

The library recently added a number of books to its Gale Virtual Reference Library database.  One book that has a little something for everyone is Social Change in America: The Historical Handbook.  As the description states, “Topics covered in Social Change in America include family life; work and employment; housing; wealth and poverty; education; health; crime; volunteer activity; religion and religious affiliation; politics; the impact of the Internet on American society.”  If you need a book with statistical information or historical perspectives about America, this is a good one to check out.  You can find this, and the other new additions to the Gale database, on the Articles, Books and More page in the library.
