New Electronic Databases

The WMCC Fortier Library is pleased to announce the addition of two new electronic databases: Credo Reference and StatRef.

With over 400 reference books in electronic format in its collection, ranging from culinary to history to biology (and everything in between), Credo Ref should be your first stop for every research assignment.

StatRef is a great database for nursing students, or anyone with a medical question, and comes in three parts: Anatomy TV, RN Database, and STAT!Ref Database. STAT!Ref and RN have the full text of medical and nursing books in electronic format.

From the library homepage, Credo Reference and STAT!Ref can be accessed electronically using the links at the Databases menu; contact the library staff for usernames and passwords to access both from off-campus. Usernames and passwords are not required on campus in Berlin and Littleton.

New Computers

Thanks to the WMCC Student Senate, the library now has five new Dell desktop computers with flat screen monitors. Also, two new wireless Dell laptops can be used in the library by our students.

Ask a member of the library staff for assistance!

Bellows Falls

Join the discussion on Bellows Falls, by Archer Mayor, on Wednesday, June 3 at 7 p.m.

Set in Vermont, this mystery about police corruption takes the reader all over the state--and into the waters of Lake Champlain too!

Led by scholar Frumie Selchen, and hosted by the Berlin Public Library/White Mountains Community College, this event is sponsored in part by the New Hampshire Humanities Council. Refreshments will be served.

Copies of the Spring series books are available at the Berlin Public Library or the WMCC library.

Stranger in the Kingdom

On Wednesday, May 6, the Berlin Public Library & White Mountains Community College will host the third in their Spring 2009 book discussion series with Craig Doherty at the podium, discussing Vermont author Howard Frank Mosher's A Stranger in the Kingdom.

The discussion begins at 7 p.m., and refreshments will be available.

Copies of the Spring series books are available at the Berlin Public Library and the WMCC library.

This program is sponsored in part by the New Hampshire Humanities Council.

Overdues are due

Students of White Mountains Community College who have overdue library materials (including those borrowed from other libraries) need to get items back to the library by April 22nd, or a hold will be placed on the student's account*... and no one wants that to happen.

*A hold placed on an account would prevent the student from receiving grades, transcripts, and refunds, as well as registering for future classes.
