Internet Databases
Frequently Asked
Questions:
|
What is an online
database?
An online database is an organized source of rich information containing
thousands of full-text materials that previously were only available in
print. The information found in these databases may include magazine and
newspaper articles, encyclopedia articles, almanacs, or pamphlets. The
articles have been stored in a digital format so that you can easily search
them using keywords, subjects, authors and titles.
Why does the Library subscribe to electronic databases?
The Library subscribes to these databases to give you 24/7
access to copyrighted information that is not usually found for free on the
Internet.
Why should I use a database instead of just using Google or some
other search engine?
If you’re a frequent Internet user, you may find that websites are
charging for viewing a complete copy of just the very information or article
that you need. You may find conflicting or incomplete information since
anyone with a computer and some web skills can put just about anything they
want up on the Internet. By subscribing to these databases, the Library is
providing you with a wealth of solid information in electronic format just
as it continues to do in the more traditional way by purchasing books and
other materials for you to consult or check out for home use.
