New Library Databases

The library has several new databases for your research needs! Through a generous state program, we acquired a large package of databases from Ebsco, including Academic Search Premier, Medline, MasterFile Premier and much more. The library was also able to acquire three collections from JSTOR, three new databases from Gale (Informe, World History in Context and US History in Context) and over 4000 new ebooks from Springer.

You can access all of these new resources on our electronic resources page. If you have any questions about our databases, please contact Lori Cassidy, the Online Services Librarian.

The library will be holding workshops starting March 7th. These 60 minute extra-credit workshops, held in the library's lecture room, will teach library and information research skills using print and electronic resources. They will also introduce the library's services and resources. Extra credit slips will be available if requested by your teacher.
