How Is the Right Information Found?
When we use a phone book, we look under a word or words that name the service such as
auto repair or senior centers. The Online Database works the same way. You can search
for resources under the topics for Food, Employment, Health, etc. You can also search by
population type, location, or by the name of the organization.
