What do the content level icons assigned to reference and periodical articles in Student Resource Center mean?

0

There are three content level recommendations in Student Resource Center: Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. Icons associated with each of these levels help describe the degree of detail and difficulty each information source provides. The levels coincide with stages of research: from basic research for facts about a topic to deeper research for more background and context to a sophisticated information need for scholarly details and recent developments. Further, the content level icons indicate the sources’ intended audiences. Gale creates research materials for targeted audiences (e.g., U*X*L is for grades 5 and up), and these publisher recommendations, along with the amount of detail, are the basis of the designated content levels.
