Databases

The library subscribes to a wide variety of full-text magazine, journal article and specialized databases that are unavailable through Internet search engines.

All of these databases are available from the library's public computers and most of them are also available day or night from home or office. You will need to enter your library card number in order to access these databases from outside of the library.

If you need help using one of these databases, please stop by the Information Services Desk or call us at 413-562-0716. We will be glad to help you find what you need.
