[Michlib-l] MeL Minute - Google Drive and Google Classroom Tip Sheets

[Borrelli, Eunice (MDE)]

Hello everyone,

This is an update to the November 19, 2015 MeL Minute detailing the partnership between Gale Cengage and Google to integrate use of Google in Gale databases.  The Google tools are now available in InfoTrac products such as Kids InfoBits and Opposing Viewpoints in Context, GVRL, and others.  Gale Cengage has created Tip Sheets on Google Drive Integration and Google Classroom Integration which we now link to in the MeL Promotion & Training Gateway<http://mel.org/Promotions> under the Gale classification<http://mel.org/index.php?P=MeLGateways&ParentId=135>.  Each tip sheet provides step-by-step instructions for how to utilize the tools from within Gale databases to share and download content and are presented as PDFs for easy access and local printing.  These two tip sheets are among the over 70 product tip sheets and guides<http://solutions.cengage.com/gale-training/materials/tip-sheets/> provided by Gale which are also linked to on MeL.

MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan.  Want more information on MeL?
