SUBSCRIPTION DATABASES
FOR READERS


Below is a list of the Bud Werner Memorial Library's subscription databases. Some of our databases may be accessed from home providing you have a library card. If a database says HOME ACCESS AVAILABLE then you will be prompted to enter all 13 digits of the barcode number found on the back of your library card to gain acces to the database. Not all of our subscription databases are accessible from home, but we do plan to offer full access in the future.

If you have any questions, need help, or if you would like to offer suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact Alysa Selby by email or at 970-879-0204 x305.
