I chose to use the Brittanica Academic link.  Growing up we all had use of encyclopedia sets such as World Book and others.  Brittanica was always considered the more academic of encyclopedia sets when I was in school.  I found this site very helpful because of the headings that it has.  Being a social studies guy, I appreciate how it has headings and links for different disciplines under social studies like political science and geography.  My main focus of interest was the link to primary source documents.  That was really helpful especially with many districts going to Eureka curriculum which focuses on more document based teaching.  The other reason that I chose this site is the helpful flyer that is viewable from the avl website.  This site even offers a free 30 minute webinar that teaches one how to use the site.  It’s really a great tool that I have not seen with most other document/academic search engines.  Very helpful.
