Using the Online Databases from Home |

JerseyClicks is New Jersey's statewide portal that features federated searching of the statewide full-text databases offered by the New Jersey State Library, the New Jersey Network, and funds from the Library Services and Technology Act. The portal can be found at www.jerseyclicks.org. New Jersey residents can search the full-text databases through one user-friendly interface. JerseyClicks offers keyword and custom searching of databases through a federated search. That means you don't have to search each database individually. You can search them simultaneously. These high quality databases cover subjects such as health, history, business, education, science, current events, literature, and popular fiction. The suite also includes Informe, our Spanish language full-text database. If you have Internet access you can search for high quality Internet age information 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The Quick Search offers keyword searching across all disciplines. After entering a search, the customer is asked to enter a library card number before results are seen. If the search is done within a library building, no library card number will be required. Custom Search offers the user the ability to choose the databases to be searched. Click on the Q&Anj link to go to our statewide virtual reference service. Your library patron number will be found on the blue Lambertville Free Public Library card issued to you when you registered. If you did not get a library card, or have lost it, you may request a card or its replacement by calling the library at 609-397-0275 any time during library hours.
