DATABASES are reference titles published in electronic format purchased by either the Newton Free Library, Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners, Massachusetts Library System or the Minuteman Library Network, and available only via the Internet.

Below is a list of databases and internet resources selected by our reference librarians. Unless indicated as "In library only," these resources are available from any internet connection.  Some databases will require you to enter your Minuteman Library card number for access outside the library.

WEBSITES include free Internet research tools selected by Newton Free Library Reference Librarians.
