Online research tools of the Capital Area District Library (CADL) by Jim MacLean, Head Reference Librarian

CADL subscribes to dozens of databases not freely available on the Web, but with your CADL Library Card, you can access many of those databases from home using your Macintosh. Jim MacLean will show us how to access and use CADL's subscription databases. The subject matter is extremely broad ranging.
