Research & Learn: Homework Help for Youth

Resources for kids up to grade 8 Resources for students in high school and beyond

Before Google, the Library was always the first place everyone went to conduct research. Now, Baldwin is once again a key resource for students and others in search of information, thanks to our large volume of digital research offerings. Our databases cover any topic, from ancestry research to locating sports statistics to learning Mandarin. If you need to go deeper than Wikipedia, we’ve got a resource for you.

Look below for an alphabetical list of databases that can help you. Please note that some resources can only be accessed with a BPL card.
