Some of my teachers have a similar assignment.  In addition to the various ebooks I have on mental health, I also point them to Medline Plus.  https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/

Good for them to know these free, reliable resources are out there in case they have a personal need, too.

Subject: [CASL-L] Question for high school Librarians

Hello everyone,

 

I’ve been asked to collaborate with a teacher who wants students to research teen depression in relation to the book A Catcher in the Rye. Can anyone suggest resources? They can be apps, online or tangible as long as they are high school level. Students will visit the library next week and I will show them resources on researchitct.org (the artist formerly known as iconn) but wanted to reach out in case anyone has ideas or suggestions.

 

Thanks,

Dawn M. Zillich, librarian

St. Paul Catholic High School

"The old idea of the librarian as a sort of recluse closeted with his books and

interested only in them is the very antithesis of the modern librarian, who

must live with people equally with books, and who must also be keenly aware

of all that is going on in the world around him."

~Linda A. Eastman~ (Head Librarian of the Cleveland Public Library, 1918 to 1938)
