Where are these amazing resources from?
The Oregon School Library Information System (OSLIS) provides access to magazine articles, citation help, research methods, and lots more. OSLIS is available to all Oregon students and their families. Home access requires a district-supplied username and password which you can obtain from your school library staff.
All subscription-based online database services provided by OSLIS can be accessed at school without a username or password. If you access them from outside of the district, you will need to provide the district username (springsd) /password (ask your library staff for this).
