Infobase Learning is pleased to announce that Bloom’s Literature has been chosen by Library Journal as a winner in this year’s Best Database selections, in the “Best Niche Product” category. According to Library Journal, winners of the “Best Niche Product” category are materials that “challenge traditionally buttoned-up scholarly expectations.” This respected publication has recognized Bloom’s Literature based on the choices of librarians and reviewers.
