HELP USING ONLINE DATABASE INFORMATION

 

What do we have for databases?  How do I use the information from our databases in NoodleBib?  The Subscription Services that we have at the high school are all listed below and are named exactly as they appear in the NoodleBib pull-down menu.

NoodleBib states:

 

If you are SURE that (a) the URL to the content in the database is unique and can be used by your reader to locate the same content and (b) the URL is not impractically long, provide that specific URL here. For example, EBSCO databases give you a "persistent link" when you view a record. Otherwise, provide the URL of the database's search page or home page (for instance, http://web.lexisnexis.com/scholastic/

or http://infotrac.galegroup.com/

 

If you were to provide a link to noodlebib for your teacher, you would use this link:

http://www.noodletools.com/

 

Since we all have to use a username / password for our databases, using either the school website link or the log-in page for the database would be acceptable.
