I wanted to notify you of some exciting news.  On December 11th, Gale is updating Kids InfoBits to a mobile responsive design. With this update, K-5 students will be able to explore and learn research skills on mobile devices, like tablets and smart phones. Also available beginning December 11, students can utilize the Google-integrated features like Drive and Classroom.

New Features include:
*       Mobile Responsive Design - pages adjust to mobile device size
*       New Browse Topics View - ability to easily jump between topics on a single page
*       Filter by Content Level - Limit search results to Basic, Intermediate, or Advanced within a search result list
*       Google Drive Integration (see www.gale.com/google<http://www.gale.com/google>)
*       Google Classroom Integration (see www.gale.com/google<http://www.gale.com/google>)

Existing URLs will automatically update on December 11; no action is necessary by libraries.

Below are screenshots of various product features.  Please let me know if you have any questions about these exciting new enhancements.
