abstract = "The Facts on File Ancient and Medieval History Online database is a comprehensive overview of nine culture groups, aimed primarily at high school libraries, with meaningful coverage from 5000 BCE to 1600 CE drawing heavily from Facts on Files print sources. The articles in this
database consist of fully digitized print sources divided by topic and incorporating hyperlinks to other related topics, much like a popular open source online encyclopedia. In addition to scholarly content, this database provides Curriculum Tools for both students and educators covering topics
on scholarly research ranging from how to evaluate a primary resource to how to avoid plagiarism. Overall this reasonably priced database provides an excellent introduction to Ancient and Medieval studies for the secondary school market, although it does lack detailed analysis for more advanced
students.",
