GVRL Trial Database

We have trial access to the entire collection of Gale Virtual Reference Library books until Feb. 13.

Feel free to browse or search this collection. Let us know what you think! Leave a comment or contact your librarian.

We want to add books to our collection that support your classes. If you know of a book that you think the library should own, let us know!

The Library already has many e-books including about 40 from Gale Virtual Reference Library. You can search for them in the Online Catalog or the Gale database.
