Here are 10 things I thought were worth sharing:
  1. Happy Women’s History Month, everyone!
  2. Matt Miller has lots of ideas for his fellow teachers to make your classes more fun, impactful & exciting!
  3. Another cool way to choose your next book!
  4. Do you know the subway system as well as THE CITY’s transit reporter? Prove it here and here!
  5. The Open Access Books Collection on loc.gov includes approximately 6,000 contemporary open access e-books covering a wide range of subjects, including history, music, poetry, technology, and works of fiction. All books in this collection were published under open access licenses, meaning the e-books are available to use and reuse according to the terms of the licenses. Users can access the e-books in the Open Access Books Collection by reading directly online in a browser or downloading the book as a PDF or EPUB file.
  6. Over 50 percent of Cambridge University Press research articles are now published open access (OA) and so freely available to read!
  7. Check out the Wonders of Street View for some cool armchair traveling!
  8. Wikipedia is a gold mine of interesting facts, and Sam Enright created The Cabinet of Wikipedian Curiosities to share what he found!
  9. I recently spoke to a research librarian at the World Bank, and she told me that they have an open access research portal perfect for students doing all kinds of research. Dig in!
  10. AI comes in many flavors, and Perplexity is one of them! It’s a powerful search engine/chat tool that answers questions in real time, so let your curiosity run wild!
