Opening the Right Doors to a Lifetime of Learning™  

The ELF™ Child-Safe Browser allows children to safely explore carefully chosen, highly engaging free-use educational resources on the internet. Children may work either with adults or on their own. With ELF™, parents and teachers can know that the child is visiting only sites that are wholesome, educational, and fun.

This is ALWAYS accomplished because ELF™ checks every piece of content before it is displayed to ensure that the material is coming from a supplier and site that have been specifically approved by your library and/or by AWE.  Please click here to email the library for information for obtaining ELF.
