Alabama Virtual Library

Alabama Virtual Library, also known as AVL, is extremely useful to teachers, students, and citizens in Alabama. AVL allows teachers, students, and citizens online access to important library and information resources. Most of the information comes from online databases that have research articles coming from magazines, journal, and newspaper articles. The AVL allows students to achieve academic excellence more easily.

Since it is only offered to residents of Alabama, one cannot register online. People have to go to their local library and obtain a Alabama Virtual Library card. However, schools may offer their students AVL cards. Some universities and colleges allow their students to access specific campus databases for AVL. Overall, I think AVL is an interesting idea and I feel like it could be useful and help students, teachers, and citizens obtain better knowledge of material they desire through online library resources.
