We originally let Gale go when the state dropped them and just came back to them this year.

They are much more user-friendly then EBSCO. Regularly my students find content that is publicly available on different websites. Sometimes those websites are of questionable or indeterminate quality. I like Gale better than EBSCO. But we use our ABC-Clio databases far more. ABC-Clio is cheaper, just as user-friendly (if not more), you can still translate and read aloud.

Is renewing Gale worth it if I’m already using Research It CT? As a new LMS I am trying to figure out what to keep and what to cut back on.

Thanks!
