This dynamic training session introduces South Carolina librarians and educators to two powerful digital resources available through Discus: Gale’s For Students eBook Series and the newly added Gale In Context: Middle School.

The For Students series offers rich literary content across short stories, novels, poetry, and drama, providing students with accessible literary criticism, author insights, and contextual essays to support deeper analysis and engagement. Gale In Context: Middle School complements this by offering age-appropriate reference materials, multimedia content, and cross-curricular support that helps middle school students build background knowledge and connect literature to broader themes and real-world issues. Educators will learn how to navigate both platforms, integrate them into instruction, and utilize built-in tools for accessibility, citation, and differentiation. This session will equip you with strategies to enrich your curriculum using trusted, student-friendly digital resources.
