The Library also provides access to resources in an online, electronic format. Over 50 electronic databases (indexes, abstracts, and full-text) are available on the Web at no cost to PHC students, faculty and staff. (Community users are encouraged to visit your local public library for electronic resources.)
In addition, the Library allows access to over 35,000 academic “ebooks” from netLibrary through the campus network. Users must create their own username and password to access these items.
Finally, over 5,000 of our periodical subscriptions appear in electronic, online format.
