Finding magazine and journal articles to support your research

PCC subscribes to a wide variety of article databases -- in other words, we make it easy for you to find and print millions of different articles on nearly any topic. Our most popular set of databases is EBSCOhost, also known as Magazine Articles Online. You'll find it on the library home page, and on the My Courses tab of MyPCC. There's a video demonstration of many EBSCOhost features here!

Welcome to the PCC Libraries!

Watch this space during the term -- I'll be posting information about library services and resources you can use from anywhere, anytime. We'll start Friday with information about getting a campus library card without visiting a PCC campus! If you have any questions about the library, you can find me (Robin Shapiro) in your WebCT class e-mail list, or post on the discussion board -- I'll be checking in regularly.
