EB Online for Kids is a bright and friendly interface to a world of authoritative, reliable content, including Compton's Encyclopedia, Elementary Encyclopedia and Dictionary, Geography Explorer, Animal Kingdom, A-Z Browse, World Atlas, and Biographies. Look for the “EBOnline For Kids” logo in the top right corner.
The Britannica is replacing the World Book Encyclopedia Online in our list of online resources. Britannica offers the same content with a more updated and clear interface, and World Book, as before, will be available in print in libraries across Washington County.
