Online databases from Facts on File! The Library now has access to three new reference databases. African-American History Online, American History Online, and American Women’s History Online each have thousands of entries—topical entries, biographies, maps, timeline entries, primary source documents, and images—which are hyperlinked and allow you to follow a path to related entries. Your library card number is your key to log in to these authoritative resources from home, school, or office.
