Digital Resources Help
As you navigate the Digital Resources launch page, there are links with password information in this shared google doc which will show username and password information for every paid online resource at Central, including InfoBase, Salem, and EBSCO resources.
You need to be logged into your school google account to see the document.
Most of the links on this page are describing and explaining resources; they are not links to the actual resource. To go directly to the resource, please use our 'Digital Resources' launch page.
