Databases




On our library catalog (Destiny) homepage, you will find links to the databases that we subscribe to.  
Finding an online space to keep logins is a bit tricky. Since these are paid subscriptions, we don't want to publish them online unless the site is password protected. To help alleviate the frustration of not knowing where to find this info, Katie has set up the following:
Send a blank email to: 
and all the logins/passwords will be automatically emailed back to you.  
(NB: Only works for people with an @gapps.uwcsea.edu.sg email address.)

Save the email and you're all set. Thanks to Katie for setting this up!

Earth Day 2012

Earth Day snuck up on me this year. I can't believe it is almost April 22! I apologize that I didn't post this earlier but it's never too late celebrate Earth Day.


We've created a display in the library of fiction and nonfiction books that you might want to use with your classes.
