Library lecture

I learned useful databases for academic writing: Gale Virtual Reference Library and LexisNexis in last library lecture. I was surprised that an encyclopedia of GVRL explained things in detail. Because I had used only Britannica and Mypedia in my electronic dictionary, and they did not give long descriptions.
I had almost never referred to a newspaper before because it was hard for me to find an article related to my essay topic. But using LexisNexis, I can search for it easily. It is really helpful!
I would like to use these databases efficiently so as to make my essay better.
