[CASL-L] Library Research for the Topic (The day I was born)

Try this site for a variety of events: http://www.on-this-day.com/
 Students would have to use a database to get at the impact of the event, do you have access to any Gale Databases like US History in Context,  or the print version of American Decades?

Subject: [CASL-L] Library Research for the Topic (The day I was born)

Colleagues,

A sociology class is researching the day they were born and how events from that day affect them today.  We used the New York Times Historical database and Keesing's Contemporary Archives, which ends for us in 1984.  What types of resources do you use for this type of research? Thanks.

Karen
