NEW SOCIAL STUDIES EBOOKS
WHERE TO LOOK IN THE LIBRARY

“The primary purpose of social studies is to help young people make informed and reasoned decisions for the public good as citizens of a culturally diverse, democratic society in an interdependent world.”
As you might guess from all the subject areas listed above, social studies books can be found in several different places in the library (and on the Internet). Because of this, social studies is one of the subject areas where asking a librarian can really help. If you want to browse social studies books, they can be found in:
- the 000s (General Knowledge);
- the 100s (Philosophy and Psychology);
- the 200s (Religion), the 300s (Social Sciences);
- the 600s (Technology and Applied Sciences);
- the 700s (Arts, Sports and Recreation);
- and the 900s (Geography, History and Biography)
