INFOhio 13 Electronic Databases are purchaseddddd resource
OBJECTIVE - .
Repeat
Say again
recap
Actually the INFOhio resources are FREE to all Ohio schools (K-12 – private or public). They are purchased resources – but purchased with state funding, not with the fees paid by districts to the ITC. So, all schools in Ohio should be using these resources. But, it seems, many do not understand about them….
Cost-wise, the resources (our CORE collection) offered through the partnership of INFOhio, OhioLINK, OPLIN and the State Library cost $ 0.45 per person, compared to $45.00 per person if bought separately.

Is it important to have current, accurate, objective information when creating research products? Maybe not, most students believe if it is on the net it is most likely true or at least not blatantly wrong.
