<p class="MsoNormal">Last week, MeL released a "Back to School" letter that can be shared with families, teachers, and even students. It explains that MeL is a great resource for K-12 students and to keep it in mind as a go-to this school year for class assignments.
It also contains a 1-page chart that lists some of the K-12 databases with live links, and bullet points about each. <o:p></o:p></p>
