24/7 Services

The Library is now closed for the Memorial Day weekend (we reopen Tuesday at noon), but many of our services are still available to you. You can log into your account at OWWL.org and check due dates, choose titles to put on Hold, or renew what you already have out.

You can log into our online databases to access full-text magazine articles, business and health information, local, New York, and national newspapers, and more. From the online databases link, you can also access LearnATest and practice for an upcoming civil service examination, your GED, college entrance and military exams, or work on various skill improvements. From that same link, a click on NoveList will let you browse through well over 100,000 recommended fiction titles. When you find one that sounds good to you, click on "Check the Library Catalog." This will take you directly back to OWWL, where you can place a Hold on the title.

There are many more things you can do through these subscription databases, but if I tried to list them all, you and I wouldn't have enough time left to be able to enjoy our long weekend! Enjoy browsing through our 24/7 services, and I'll look forward to seeing you in the Library soon.
