Online databases provide students with access to resources previously made available in print by reputable publishers, as well as new, expert content written specifically for online researchers. Because free resources available on the Internet vary in credibility and accuracy, libraries (state, public, and school) purchase access to these resources for their patrons, ensuring the quality of information provided.
