Problem with Access to Online Library Resources

  • Access to online library resources will be unavailable until further notice. Upon deeper inspection, the server responsible for the internet traffic to the databases crashed one week before the fall semester started. It was determined to be too old to repair. A new server is being acquired.
  • In the meantime, our Librarians recommend Power Library, a state-funded library database, for your research needs. You can use your Public Library card number to login. If you don't have one, you'll need an E-Card (free) before using their resources. 
  • Also, you can use EBSCO Essentials to find trusted free research content. You'll need to create an account.
  • We will contact you when access to the college library's online databases are restored.
