Changes to Library Online Databases Effective Nov. 3

Starting today, you will notice a few changes to our databases when you visit either of our database pages (by subject) or (alphabetically). Database and other online resource descriptions have been rewritten or moved to make finding what you need easier

As of today, we no longer subscribe to the Testing & Education Reference Center. If you are looking for college & career advice or test prep resources, try our Testing Preparation pathfinder.

Our newest database is Newsbank, an easy-to-search database containing electronic editions of local, regional, and national U.S. newspapers. Each paper provides local and regional coverage of companies, politics, sports, industries, cultural activities, and more. Paid ads are excluded. Local papers included in NewsBank are the Goochland Gazette (full text from 12/6/2006), the Mechanicsville Local (full text from 3/6/2007), and the Richmond Times-Dispatch (full text from 1985).

Go to NewsBank in the Library or from Work Home or School
Remember to have your library card number handy if you are using NewsBank outside of the library.

If you have any questions about these changes or any of the library's databases and other online resources, please email ask@pamunkeylibrary.org or see a staff member.
