| | The POWER library contains many electronic databases that allow you to
access thousands of full text periodical articles, newspapers, a major
encyclopedia, plus photographs, pictures, charts, maps, reference materials
for young people and more. You will find materials of interest in most
subject areas for all age groups from young children to adults. The
Power Library, provided by Access Pennsylvania, has so much information, you
really should visit it to find out all that is there. In addition, there is
also a feature called “Ask the Librarian.” Questions posed there are
answered by live librarians. This is an instant chat and it is available
24/7. When you finish the chat, they will send you a log of your session
with them if you provide an e-mail address. Students may also access this
website from home with a public library card. They enter via
www.buckslib.org or www.mclinc.org and choose the public library to which
they belong. Then they enter the barcode number from their public library
card and the entire Power Library is at their fingertips.
