Infotrac

Infotrac is a company that creates databases and sells access to the information in them. (A database is an organized, searchable collection of information.) If you are a Living Sky School Division student, you can access Infotrac databases at school. You can access these databases from home via your Saskatchewan Regional Library with your library barcode number and a pin number.

• The information in these databases comes from credible sources that have been fact-checked.
• Most of the Infotrac databases are indexed, which means they are organized so you can do subject searches.
• You can also do keyword and relevance searches in many of the databases.

HOT TECH TIP

When you see the InfoMark® icon on your search results page, this means that you can bookmark the page for future reference, or add it to a list of links on a Web page, blog or wiki page. InfoMarks are ideal for creating reading lists, course reserves, current awareness topic sites, links to periodical or newspaper sources, online/distance learning courses, bibliographies, lesson plans and much more!
