Essential Library of the Information Age - School Library Connection

Teens increasingly rely on the Internet to express themselves, communicate with others, and get information. Delighted with the potential, many are unaware of the hazards and traps that await them. . . . They need to learn the pros and cons of net neutrality, copyright laws, and big data. These topics, among others, are clearly presented with examples that relate to the students’ lives. This set uses relevant examples of young people dealing with the digital world. The attractive layout includes informative photos and sidebars to present new material. Highly Recommended.
