The OPACs will give you access to databases from NAHS, AFPLS, and the Galileo Portal. We will be building pages of your favorites by subject matter soon, but for now, here are a few you won't necessarily find in the OPACs. Feel free to share databases you find most useful and we'll post them here.
Mrs. Costarides' personal favorite is JSTOR.org. Here's what she says about it:
o Without a doubt, the BEST resource online. It has everything from primary sources, books, and journal articles. It is basically the ONLY place to access Journal Articles, which you MUST have for your paper…as a matter of fact, it is the FIRST EE assignment due soon.
o The ONLY WAY you can print these resources out from JSTOR is while you are AT An ATLANTA PUBLIC LIBRARY BRANCH.
o There is something new you can do to “READ” SOME sources and that is to register for a JSOTR ‘register and read’ account. Let’s go over this now.
Ms. McCall's newest discovery is ProQuest's Statistical Abstract of the United States. It has a plethora of statistical data and charts for just about every subject imaginable. You can access it through the Galileo portal under "S" in Databases A-Z.
