Revolution+&+Rebellion

**Books**
You will find a cart of books on various subjects in the library on a cart labeled "Revolution & Rebellion". However, it should be noted that other books may exist in our collection on other moments or on other leaders during those moments. Because the topics for this project are so various, I cannot provide you will a starting point for subject access, however, let us know if you have trouble searching the catalog to see if our library has books on a particular flashpoint in history.

Our Central HS Library Catalog Look here for specific books on people and topics. Find the **subject heading** appropriate and hopefully we have materials to help. We have limited books available at Central, so you may have to make use of the Public libraries. **You will find links to there catalogs here: **

Champaign Public Library If you would like to look at something from the library, remember that ordering can take up to 10 days, when they are 6 blocks down the street. Especially if you have a public library card, consider walking over there to look at and check out materials. Urbana Free Library Remember that if you have a Champaign Public library card, it is good to use at the Urbana Free Library as well! You can order from here using your Central HS number (just ask us if you don't have your library card still), **just remember to do it early!**

**Databases**
World Book Advanced is a powerful reference tool that includes encyclopedia, multimedia, e-book, and primary source databases, fully integrated in a single search.
 * [|World Book Advanced]**

** [|Gale's Student Resource Center] ** provides holistic topic perspectives by integrating a multitude of content, including reference articles, news, primary sources, and audio clips.

** American National Biography ** Portraits of more than 18,700 men and women--from all eras and walks of life--whose lives have shaped the nation. Please note that if the movement, revolution, or rebellion did not take place in the United States, the people involved will NOT be included in this database.

**Websites**
Like subject headings, it is hard to find websites that would be useful to __all of you__, no matter what your topic, but here are a few:

Companion to a public television program that considers the story of Nat Turner, who led a famed slave revolt in Virginia in 1831 and who been a subject of fierce debate. It "examines how the story of Turner and his revolt have been continuously re-told since 1831." The site features an overview of the rebellion, a timeline of slave rebellions in the Americas (1663-1859), and links to related sites. From Independent Television Service (ITVS).
 * Nat Turner: A Troublesome Proberty**

 * Hippie Society: Youth Rebellion**

This site describes the French Revolution materials at the Cornell University Library Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections.

**Citing Sources**
If you are asked to cite your sources, here is a funky little free tool called NoodleBib Express.

It generates a citation for you if you put in the appropriate information. You can use this primarily for the books--the databases have built in citation generators. Remember to cite early and often, as we tend to forget where we got something right before the assignment is due!
