Alabama Virtual Library

The Alabama Virtual Library, also known as the A.V.L., is a group of internet resources that can be used by student, teachers, or even just citizen of the state of Alabama. The site consists of magazines, journals, and news paper articles that can be helpful to the public. One way to use the site is to get an Alabama Virtual Library Card that you can get from any of the Public Libraries here in Mobile.

The other way the site can be useful is the database search. This tool allows you to find information but selecting an age group or a topic, ranging from Adult Education to Social Sciences. This site can also be used to find a specific magazine or journal, however it is only virtual copy of th information it is still very helpful to people. The Alabama Virtual Library can be useful to pretty much anyone living in Alabama but it is especially useful for college students and teachers.

If I had not gone to the AVL website I feel as if I would feel confident in navigating it from your blog post.

Good start. Need to complete your post. Very last sentence states, "The link to this website is....." I know your title is the link, but... Also, where are your post for this week, the "The Edible Schoolyard and A Night in the Global Village" as well as a post on Mr. Sullivan's accessibility presentation. Just need to finish your assignment.
