From subscription databases to ebooks to national, state and local digital collections and more, library workers will find a good overview of what the resources are and how to acquire and/or access them, as well as related topics such as copyright, security and appropriate use policies. -- Sandra Smith Rosado, Head of Technical Services, J.
