Brooklyn Public Library Digital Collection
Discover the history of Brooklyn. This digitized archive will allow you to learn all about the uniquely rich history of Brooklyn.
College and determining a future career are daunting subjects to broach. Career guidance provides helpful career exploration tools.
You can find a list of all digital resources and databases available, here. Please join me every Thursday starting November 19th over at the Arlington Library Facebook page for our Exploring Online Teen Resources Series. Every Thursday, we will take a more in-depth look into a particular resource. I will be showing you what the resource offers, how to navigate said resource, and helpful real world application. If you do not have a Brooklyn Public Library card and are a New York State resident you can apply for a free eCard which will give you access to our collection.
