Biography Resource Center
Biography Research Center is a great place to fine different types of digitized reference books. There is an entry for nearly everyone who ever existed. Often there are several different bents to the articles based on the work from which they come. For example, Charles Darwin is in the Encyclopedia of World Biography and World Eras, Vol. 9: Industrial Revolution in Europe (1750-1914) as well as 14 other sources. The search parameters are very interesting so that if the student is looking for geneticists he can use that as a search term as well as the country of origin . The results are tabbed so that you can also access magazine articles and vetted websites.
