I didn't find the information available in the EBooks on EbscoHost as complete as some of the other resources. I did a search on the Revolutionary War, a topic my daughter has been studying in school. I didn't find much that would be related.
I also didn't find much that was of use in my search for "Constitution Day". A few sources, but I was surprised at the limited number.
Perhaps I was not using this resource properly??
In the advanced search option, it was interesting to be able to find items that were published in a particular area that gave information on the topic searched.
Thanks for your comments, Liberty Library Lady. This can be tricky to search, I think. When I find a book that is of the sort I want, I click in and then click on the most relevant subject heading, which will give me more similar titles. I searched "Revolutionary War" (with quotation marks) and got 15 results, the first of which is a juvenile book. Ebooks on EbscoHost doesn't have anything specific about Constitution Day, but it does have material about the U.S. Constitution that could be used for the project suggested. We think of this resource as a supplement to what your library already has on certain topics, and the titles were purchased with non-fiction public library collections in mind. Thanks for giving it a try.
