Most people don't take full advantage of their local public libraries. Public libraries have many great resources! Many public libraries have free online journal databases that include full text, and sometimes scholarly, content. To access these resources, you will need to have a library card. If you don't already have a library card from your local public library, try searching the NCES Library Search to find the libraries closest to you (try putting your state, zip and distance you are willing to travel, and click on search). Many public libraries only require a current ID and proof of your current address, but it is always good to call ahead and ask.
Remember you can always ask Katrina or Lucy for information and suggestions about public library resources.
