Back to School E-resources from CPL

If you can believe it, summer is over, and we are gearing up for another beautiful fall. This means leaves changing colors and being crunched as you walk on sidewalks and grass; cooler temperatures and, of course, back-to-school time.

Now that you have spent all summer with us at the library, we are just as awesome in the fall, and we have so many great resources to support you on your next educational journey.

Not only do we have thousands of books, DVDs and much more, we also have an amazing digital collection with resources to help students from a young age through adulthood. All these resources are available at the library and at home with your handy Canton Public Library card.

Are you interested in learning a new language or brushing up on a foreign language you learned many years ago while in school? Be sure to explore Mango Languages, a great resource for learning over 70 languages.

Mango can be accessed both from home and at the library. If you create a free account, all your progress will be saved from lesson to lesson.

LearningExpress Library offers test prep, skill-building, and career resources for students of all ages, in both Spanish and English. They also offer practice tests for many common high school and college exams, including the SAT, GED, college placement exams and much more.

Our Gale database center includes Gale Books and Authors, Gale in Context: Biography, Gale in Context: Opposing Viewpoints, Gale in Context: US History, Gale in Context: World History and so much more. Students of all ages and casual learners seeking new information will enjoy exploring the options and subjects.

Are you looking to find out more about your heritage and the places your family immigrated from? Global Road Warrior has travel and historical information on over 175 countries worldwide. You can use this information for reports, to plan a trip, or to find out more about the traditions and food of each location.

If you are seeking the university experience without the tuition bill, both Hoopla and Kanopy offer access to the highly popular Great Courses series, so you can learn from the best without leaving your home.

Whatever your goal, your Canton Public Library card can take you there this autumn.
