I had representatives from Britannica, Gale (Research in Context, Kids InfoBits, OVIC) World Book, and ProQuest join me to help showcase some of their products that we offer through the Michigan eLibrary. It was amazing to see the great wealth of Primary Source documents, biographies, Freedman's Bank Records, and articles that can be used in the classroom related to Black History Month.
