"Please extend our
thanks to CMRLS for
these fine databases.
We so appreciate all that you do for us and the Library community in general.
It helps keep us all vital
and relevant."
Use Google less - and databases more
Members get lots of databases free of charge with their membership in CMRLS.
Some of these come directly from CMRLS, others come from the state, aka the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners. The most important thing to us is that you use them all -- and tell us what you think about them and how they help you help your patrons.
The following list is also available in a handy PDF chart. (pdf, 1 page) Use Google less and these databases more for the very best information!
