| Opposing Viewpoints
In Context is one of the premier databases covering today's hottest social issues, from Terrorism to Endangered Species, Stem Cell Research to Gun Control. It helps students develop critical-thinking and information literacy skills by bringing together a variety of information on social issues. |
| Opposing Viewpoints In Context organizes thousands of Viewpoint and reference articles, statistics, newspaper and magazine articles, images, primary source documents, and Web sites by source type so students can easily navigate through the content. |
| A default search appears on the Opposing Viewpoints main page, and students can simply click on a desired topic from the subjects listed. Subject areas include Business and Economics; Energy and Environmentalism; Family Issues; Health and Medicine; Law and Politics; Science, Technology and Ethics; Society and Culture; and War and Diplomacy. You may also search the Opposing Viewpoints database by searching for key words, such as; "stem cell research" AND ethics. |
| Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center is one of the first places to go to search for information on both sides of an issue. |
| The Literature Resource Center is a comprehensive source for literary criticism and other information about authors, their works, and literary topics. The database provides full-text biographies, bibliographies, and critical analyses of more than 130,000 writers from a variety of periods and disciplines. |

web sites) on literature, languages, linguistics, literary theory
and criticism, folklore, and performing arts. |
