To begin your research, just select a database from one of the sections below. Many of the articles in these databases are full-text, which means you can view and print each article right on the computer!

Remote access to databases from the Boston Public Library is now available:

All members of the Fisher College Community can access databases from the Boston Public Library, remotely and on campus, using a Fisher College Library barcode.

Databases with the icon are available for remote use. If you are not using the campus computer network, you are considered a remote user. When you click on the database you want to access, you will be asked to input your library barcode -- this will be your student number from your Fisher College ID card. It begins with "770" and ends in either "00" or "01".

If you do not have a Fisher College ID card: You can find your student number on your computer-generated course schedule, degree audit, or grade report from the College. Your student number begins with "770" and you may need to add "00" at the end of it, to gain access. If you cannot find your student number, or you are a staff member without a barcode, please contact us at library@fisher.edu.*

* We will always respond to your e-mail -- usually within one business day! We recommend that you add our e-mail address, library@fisher.edu, to your e-mail address book, as otherwise our replies to your messages may be delivered automatically to your spam or bulk mail folder.
