With Mindscape Student Reference Library, students can quickly and easily search 10 complete and essential research sources, including text articles, photos, maps, videos, and sound clips, all with a click of the mouse.

The program then automatically organizes their selected information into report format, giving students a significant head start in writing "A+" papers and presentations.

Scan the contents of all reference sources simultaneously, or individually. Students will then have all related articles available to them, and be able to use the information in their own work.

Students get one-click access to relevant, selected sites on the Web through top-notch Internet search services including Yahoo! This program also includes a Web browser and Internet sign-up option from Sprynet.

Stunning videos, photos, and animations simplify concepts and bring major world events to life.

The complete, unedited text of each of 8 expert reference books is always at students' fingertips. Copy these texts to the computer's hard drive for easy access- even when another CD is running in the CD-ROM drive.

Includes:

  • Hundreds of recordings of instruments and musical styles.
  • Optional "Go Find It!" trivia questions test students' knowledge of a topic.
  • A complete set of country and city maps from Mindscape World and U.S. Atlases, Limited Editions.
