Planning a Vacation?

If you are thinking of traveling within the United States or elsewhere in the world, you might consider taking a look at Culturegrams, a library database, before you head out on your travels. Information found in Culturegrams can help you avoid awkward moments. Prior to your trip, you can read about what greetings and gestures are used in a particular country or what is considered appropriate dress. If you enjoyed some native dishes on your trip, you can always look for recipes in the recipe section.

Culturegrams is one of many useful library databases. Click on these links to see the full list in either alphabetical or subject order, or click to go directly to Culturegrams. These databases can be accessed remotely (home or office) by inserting your GRCC identity number.
