OneSearch
OneSearch is a tool for searching the Library’s electronic information resources. It will enable you to search for subject information from multiple sources at the same time, including the library catalog, databases of journal articles, news services and selected Internet resources. Remember that not all the resources are full-text. Searching from home, have your library card number and pin ready. Need a library card?

Glossary of Terms
| Database | A database is an organized collection of information usually about one subject. Our library purchases many databases to provide you with premium content unavailable using a standard search engine. |
Instead of searching each database separately and entering the same information over and over, the Library uses OneSearch to search multiple databases all at once. This is called federated searching, or cross-database searching, and can save you a lot of time and effort. A single search retrieves the results from many individual databases. |
