Over 100

An Advanced Search for African American and electronic books in our library catalog turned up over 100 items.

Limiting the search to African American and speech and electronic books found 6 items.

The one that intrigued me was Lift every voice[computer file] : African American oratory, 1787-1900 / edited by Philip S. Foner and Robert James Branham. The speeches begin in 1787.

We have over 40,000 titles in NetLibrary.
There are three ways to get to netLibrary:
1. Through the NMTC catalog, limiting the advanced search to EBK
2. Through GALILEO , use the find a database box, typing in NetLibrary
3. Going to NetLibrary online

You must create a free account to use NetLibrary off campus. There are two ways to access the create a free account link-
1. On campus use the catalog, select an EBK, click on the URL to get to the book in NetLibrary- upper right hand corner (in teeny tiny print) select Create a Free Account.
2. Off campus go through GALILEO

The password for home use of GALILEO is available to the citizens of Georgia from your librarian. Some resources noted in this BLOG are only available to NMTC patrons.
