Re: Google Blocked??

Schools spend a lot of money buying access to these on line databases. It's no surprise that they want you to use them. At first I thought databases were lame too. Then I tried Lexis Nexis, with that database you can look up an article in almost any newspaper in the country. Most newspaper websites will charge you money to read old issues.

Basically your school wants you to see the benefit of databases and they're blocking Google for a week to force you to realize how beneficial databases can be.
