National Library Week in the U.S. is in a little less than a month. Gale has already announced that they will offer free access to four resources that week.

They are:

Career Transitions – A new electronic resource offering a comprehensive guide to career change.
Global Issues in Context – An electronic resource that offers global news and perspectives on issues and events of international importance.
GREENR (Global Reference on the Environment, Energy, and Natural Resources) – A new electronic resource offering authoritative reference content on the environment, energy, economic development and natural resources.
Grzimek’s Animal Life – An interactive, media-rich online resource, with information on more than 4,000 species.

Free access runs through National Library Week, April 11 to April 17, 2010. Library patrons should look for the widget on their library’s homepage, which provides single-click access to these online resources. Librarians can access the widget by visiting www.gale.com/NLW2010 after April 10, 2010. Source: Gale
