Recommended FREE Databases

Sooth.fyi - https://app.sooth.fyi/.  This is the search engine for resources that are vetted. I like the groupings, and it is very visual.  Also gives an encyclopedia/dictionary as part of the site as well as sources.	Consensus - https://consensus.app/.  AI search tool.  Searches are free; they get a few summaries that are produced from the articles using AI - gives the source.	Google Scholar - https://scholar.google.com/.  This will be a higher-end search as these don't necessarily have a way to manipulate the reading levels
