Our friendly media specialist is trained to help you find the information you need either in our book collections or online.

Database access is provided through our membership in the Massachusetts Library System (MLS) and the former South Eastern Massachusetts Library System (SEMLS).  Databases are funded by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners (MBLC) unless otherwise noted.
