Periodical Databases, purchased by the
Northampton Community College Libraries, are accessible from the library's
homepage. The library also owns print indexes, good for
researching older materials. For example, in some libraries the New York Times
print index goes back to 1851! In the NCC libraries, the index goes back to 1952.
