National Geographic & Cengage Learning A GROUNDBREAKING PARTNERSHIP
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC VIRTUAL LIBRARY
The National Geographic Virtual Library is comprised of three key collections:
Now National Geographic and Gale, part of Cengage Learning,
have partnered to bring vast resources to digital life with our
National Geographic Virtual Library. This collection brings
together a complete archive of National Geographic magazine
— every page of every issue — along with a cross-searchable
collection of National Geographic books, maps, images and
videos. www.gale.cengage.com/ngvl
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE ARCHIVE, 1888-1994
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE ARCHIVE, 1995-CURRENT
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC: PEOPLE, ANIMALS, AND THE WORLD
The National Geographic Virtual Library provides
undergraduate students with a great introduction to
primary sources. It presents accessible and educational
content in a way that engages them where traditional
academic periodicals and journals cannot.
By including vivid photographs, charts, maps,
graphs, and videos, along with articles written by
experts in their fields, National Geographic Virtual
Library supports research in a wide range of
academic disciplines - from history and geography
to anthropology and biology.
The journey started in 1888 when a group of explorers and scientists created a society for the support of geographical knowledge and to share that knowledge with the world.
Now your students can experience that early journey through unparalleled, in-depth coverage of cultures, global events, nature, science, technology, the environment, and gripping first-person accounts of epic exploration and discovery.
With comprehensive, timely articles and legendary photos and maps, the iconic magazine documents life on our planet and beyond, interpreting the world through the lens of personal experience:
• Jane Goodall’s encounters with chimpanzees in Tanzania;
• Hiram Bingham’s expedition into Machu Picchu in 1911;
• Robert Ballard’s 1985 discovery of the Titanic on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean;
• And many more examples
