Do you want to be more informed about local, national, and world events? Do online news briefs provide more questions than answers? Then, take a look at the “Go Behind the News” blog.
 
“Get free library materials that not only encourage a deeper understanding of how news events affect you, but provide the ‘big picture’ details you need to make sense of your world,” said Monica Norem, librarian.
 
Experienced college/public librarians at the Lone Star College-CyFair Library locate and compile library resources on the new blog at http://gobehindthenews.blogspot.com/ to provide background on news stories such as:
