Databases & eBooks
The library databases are a valuable resource for research. They contain reliable, full-text articles from reference books, magazines, journals, and newspapers. E-books are actual reference books that you read online. You can print the information you need - no waiting for the copier!
NOVEL resources are funded through a Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) grant to the NY State Library by the Federal Institute of Museum and Library Services.
