Developed
as a reference resource for student research, Marshall Cavendish Digital offers
products covering a wide array of subjects and interests within the school curriculum. Based on and expanded from our award-winning
printed encyclopedias and nonfiction series, each title offers all of the
authoritative content and visual excitement you would expect from Marshall
Cavendish, with the addition of online functionality that reflects the
experience and needs of a new generation of students.
Marshall
Cavendish Digital is unique in allowing users to build their own digital
library by purchasing only those resources that fit their needs. There are no subscriptions to renew or
packages to buy; access to titles is purchased individually, allowing users to
create a digital library oriented to their needs and the needs of their
students.
New
titles are being added to Marshall Cavendish Digital regularly, and articles
and information are updated as necessary to stay abreast of scholarly
developments. Features of the site
include both quick and advanced searches, a guided tour, research by category
or by title, and refinement of results by articles, images, diagrams, and
maps. Images of all types can be zoomed
in or out and printed separately or within their respective articles.
The “My
Folder” function allows students to create and maintain independent online folders
for their research, including saved bookmarks, notes, images, and articles. Additionally, students have the option to
e-mail the contents of their folders for access at other locations.
The “Cite This” tool allows students to quickly and easily cite an article
using MLA, APA, or CMS15 format, and the incorporated Merriam-Webster Online
Dictionary provides ready definitions of unknown terms.
Available now, Marshall Cavendish Digital is
easy to set up and easy to use, designed to incorporate as much functionality
into as simple a package as possible. With Marshall Cavendish Digital, we have
striven to maintain the same level of reliability, quality, and authority that
has made Marshall Cavendish a trusted name in print for over thirty years. As
the needs of our customers evolve, so, too, will our products, incorporating
all the latest innovations in education while holding fast to our commitment to
bring the best, most trusted, and easiest to use products to schools and
libraries throughout the world. |
