Gale, part of Cengage Learning, is offering free access to six online resources for use by any library during the National Library Week. Free access runs through National Library Week, from April 10 - 24, 2010. Librarians can download the widget to their homepage by visiting www.gale.cengage.com/NLW starting April 10. Library patrons should look for the widget on their library's homepage, which provides single-click access to these online resources.
In salute of the American Library Association's theme - Create your own story @ your library, Gale is offering free access to resources that help library users explore and inspire stories of all kinds. The six online resources that will be available for use by any library during the National Library Week include: Gale NewsVault; Science in Context; GREENR; Global Issues in Context; Powerspeak Languages; and Slavery and Anti-Slavery.
A Quick Response (QR) code is also available for National Library Week. After downloading a QR code-scanning app, mobile phone users can scan the QR code below with their barcode reader and automatically be taken to Gale's National Library Week website.
During the National Library Week, library users can also download the free AccessMyLibrary (AML) application, which is now available on all major mobile devices, including iOS devices (iPhone, iPad and iTouch) and Android devices, and for all markets - public, academic and school. AML apps allow library users to access the vast array of Gale information that their library has purchased on their behalf, giving them access to authoritative and trustworthy information anywhere, anytime.
