What's a Database?
| What’s an Information Database? |
|---|
|
| Why would I want to use these? |
Have you ever needed information and someone else had already borrowed the book? Have you found yourself spending time searching on the Internet and trying to decide which information was accurate and current?
|
| Can’t I just get these off the Internet? |
No, most of these articles you have to pay to read on the Internet. We have paid for you to have access to these databases through our website.
|
| How do I “open” a database? |
Access is free with a valid London Public Library card in good standing! Just click on the picture of the database you wish to explore, type in your library card number and click on “authenticate”. See the list of databases.
|
| Can I print or email my results? |
Absolutely! You can print, email and save your results when copyright allows.
|
| Can anyone help me with these? |
Some databases will have links in their descriptions on our database page to brief video tutorials for that specific database.
