Databases

More information than you can believe - free and easily accessible!

EBSCO recently merged their databases into one easily searchable site called Explora. You can access Explora here, or click on the images beneath, and use it to explore just about any topic you can think of. Within each topic are further sub-topics - for example, in the "Health" section, you can learn about emotional and mental health, as well as the human body, while under the "LIfe Skills" topic you will find information on financial literacy as well as home economics and the basics of using a computer.

We hope you'll enjoy exploring our virtual library! To access any of these databases, input the following USERNAME and PASSWORD:
