Have you looked at the Opposing Viewpoints series of books? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposing_Viewpoints_series

They cover a very wide variety of topics and are usually fairly short (though not article-short). Many libraries carry these and would be available via reQuest. We also have a good deal of them here in Middletown at the Service Center that you can borrow for 90 days.

Our seventh and eighth grade Language Arts teachers are looking for resources that have short articles with opposing views that can be used for arumentive writing. Thanks.
