Databases

Students: If you are working on a research assignment for a class, please mouse over the PROJECT GUIDES tab and click on the name of your project. You will find a page listing all the recommended online resources for that particular project.

When should you use databases instead of a regular Web search? Find out HERE.


Many of these online databases are provided by the Massachusetts Library System and the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners to member libraries. Only schools with a DESE-certified Library Teacher on staff are eligible for membership.
