Databases
The Research Library provides access to a wide variety of electronic databases on topics useful to state government. Remote access to subscription databases is limited to authorized users (state employees and, unless otherwise noted, Thomas Edison staff and students) with a library card.
New Jersey residents should use JerseyClicks to access databases licensed for statewide use. We also recommend many federal and authoritative databases that are free to the public. Databases are also available to visitors onsite at the State Library.

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.
