Encyclopedia Britannica

Encyclopedia Britannica is a great first stop for finding information about a new topic.  It has some advantages over Wikipedia:

• It is easier to understand
• You are able to choose from 3 levels of information - short simple overviews to longer and more complex articles
• Britannica comes with audio so you are able to listen to the information as you read it
