Clallam libraries offer new online resources

PORT ANGELES — Public libraries in Clallam County are offering new online resources that can be used both at the library and at home.

The North Olympic Library System — which oversees the Port Angeles, Sequim, Forks and Clallam Bay public libraries — has a variety of online forms and reference materials, said Lauren Dahlgren, manager of the Sequim Library.

The Legal Information Reference Center offers not only thousands of legal forms but many reference books about the law.

The Biography Reference Center is a comprehensive collection of information on people, past and present, famous and infamous and everything in between, Dahlgren said.

The Small Business Reference Center has startup kits, periodicals and reference books, videos and a help and advice section.

Other in-depth research databases now available are Academic Search Premier, Computer Source, MasterFILE Premier, the Military & Government Collection and the Religion & Philosophy Collection.

To use the online resources, visit www.nols.org and click on “E-Resources.”

From the drop-down menu, select a database from either alphabetical or topical lists.

A NOLS login and password are necessary.

For help, email eHelp@nols.org.
