IUSD students have access to several information databases such as Encyclopedia Britannica, ProQuest, Gale science, ABC-CLIO (social science), National Geographic for Kids, etc. South Lake students also have special access to BrainPOP.

Most of the information databases can be accessed from home via Canvas course links in the left sidebar. There are also IUSD.org bookmarks available to students automatically when they log into Google Chrome with their IUSD account or use their student Chromebooks.

Click here to find district tutorials on how to access information databases. Students can find the BrainPOP password in the Library Canvas course or you can email the South Lake librarian by clicking here.
