October 2018 Discover Your Library
When we conducted our Strategic Planning Survey, we learned that many of you are unaware of the selection of wonderful eResources available through the library. So clearly we need to do a better job of sharing the message about all of our resources with you! We decided to begin here by answering the question: "What are eResources?"
In brief, eResources are online databases that are available to our patrons. These premium databases provide a wealth of research and learning tools that can be accessed from your home or at the library. The databases are grouped into nine wide-ranging categories. In this newsletter we will start by featuring one of the newer resources in Jobs & Employment. Cypress Resumes is a powerful, easy to use tool for anyone who needs to build a personal resume.
