The NWACC Library offers a wide selection of over 150 databases for our students. Each database serves a unique purpose, so it's crucial to be selective. They should consider their research needs, such as the type of content required (scholarly articles, statistics, multimedia), coverage, relevance, and user-friendliness. Choosing the right database ensures efficient and reliable research.
