CCCOnline Library Database Access

Mary Cash, CCCOnline Librarian, is our guest today with a special library announcement and question for you. As always, please feel free to join the conversation in the companion Community thread!

IMPORTANT! CCCOnline students will no longer be able to access the online article databases at the FRCC College Hill Library. CCCOnline students and faculty now have access to CCCOnline’s subscriptions to the EBSCO article databases and the FirstSearch (WorldCat) databases!!!

To access CCCOnline’s article databases, log on to your CCCOnline D2L account. Once you're logged on, locate the Helpful Links widget on your MyHome page or one of your Course Home pages. Look for the Online Library heading and then find the link to the EBSCO Article Databases or First Search and click on the link. That will take you right in to where you can begin your search. With EBSCO, you'll want to click on the top icon to get to the different databases. See the Library Article Databases Tutorial (http://at.ccconline.org/students/wiki/Academic_Resources_-_CCCOnline_Library_Resources_-_Library_Article_Databases_Tutorial) for more information.

You can also check out the CCCOnline Library Resources (http://at.ccconline.org/students/wiki/Academic_Resources_-_CCCOnline_Library_Resources) on the Student Wiki for information on evaluating sources, online reference resources, finding your local library and Ask a Librarian.

Now that we have our own library article databases, how can we help you work them into your classes, or how can we help your students learn to use the databases better?
