If you just want useful numbers to hurl at your next Board of Education meeting, head to the Quick Facts Sheet on the right side of The Library, and click on Statistics.  These are also great to memorize for your next girl's night out or dinner party.

If you'd like quotes from solid scholars to use in a proper speech, head to the Quick Facts Sheet, and click on Anecdotes.  These blurbs are also great to share with your fellow Band Parents at Bowling Night.

If you are looking for research that addresses something more specific, review the categories on the left side of the library.  Here you will find citations of scholarly articles, and our brief descriptions of each article's substance.  Every now and then, we include a quote from the authors, because sometimes their work is too beautiful not to be appreciated.  Remember - always cite the source.  It keeps you legal.

If you'd like a full listing of our source material, check out the Full Bibliography, also on the right side of The Library. 

And if all of this is brand new and terrifying to you, save the sweat for the elliptical and fear not - just check out our Research 101 guide, also on the right side of The Library.  Navigating scholarly articles can sometimes be tricky, and finding them can be outright unnerving.  Don't worry, it's easy, once you get the hang of it, and we're here to help.
