What's New Part 3 - NEW Online Resources

A young student uses our Online Databases for  research
If you need quick access to information for your research or personal interest projects, look no further than the Petawawa Public Library. In addition to our always growing collection of books, we have added new health, hobby and kid’s educational e-resources to our list of Online Databases.

Find them on our website at petawawapubliclibrary.ca. Go to the Collections tab and select Online Databases from the drop-down menu. Use them at the library on one of our Public Internet Computers, or on your own laptop. From home, just have your library card handy and enter your 14-digit library card number if prompted.

Try them out now by clicking on the captions below each icon!  (You'll need your library card number to log in to some of them).
