Electronic Resources

Databases

Visitors to the library have access to a wide variety of electronic databases onsite.

Remote access to subscription databases is restricted to State Library authorized users (state employees and, unless otherwise noted, TESU staff and students). Authorized users can register for a State Library card for remote access to electronic resources.

New Jersey residents should use JerseyClicks to access databases licensed for statewide use and visit their local library website for access to additional content.

Transmission or reproduction of items beyond that permitted by fair use requires the permission of the copyright owners. It is the user’s responsibility to determine and comply with all restrictions based upon the intended use of the materials.  All users are expected to respect the intellectual property rights of licensed material. Failure to do so will result in loss of access.
