Treasures From The Public Library!

Welcome To The World Of New York Public Library Databases!

Another wealth of resources for our school community is The New York Public Library's website.

Here is where you will find databases on a variety of different subjects to fulfill your research needs.

1. Access the website: www.nypl.org
2. Navigate to Research
3. Go to Articles and Databases

Some of my favorite databases are:

Biography in Context - Provides thorough biographical material about individuals from all time periods with a worldwide scope.

Literature Resource Center - Highlights information on literary figures from all time periods and numerous genres (fiction, drama, and journalism, etc.).

Opposing Viewpoints -  High-quality materials (articles, primary source documents, and websites, etc.) present both sides of controversial topics.

World History in Context - A wealth of resources (primary documents, periodicals, etc.) cover events, movements, and individuals who have indelibly impacted world history.
