Doolittle Library has various digital information programs that allow students to enjoy and explore with online learning. We have our Destiny Catalog, WorldBook Encyclopedia, PebbleGo, SIRS Discoverer (ProQuest), and Epic. These programs are available on the Student Portal, Clever, and through an Internet search. They can be accessed on any device in school and at home.
Below are the programs we offer, with various login information (although if students use their school Clever account, they should not have to worry about logging into some of our resources):
