Databases

What is a database?

A database is a collection of information that is organized so that it can be easily accessed. Databases typically allow you to search across a multitude of resources: everything from newspaper and magazine articles, to more subject specific scholarly journal articles and peer reviewed materials.

Through Pace Libraries, you have access to approximately 200 databases that cover a wide range of topics.
