LibrarySearch is a great place to start your research, as it is a convenient way to search almost all of the library’s resources using a single search box. You can find books, academic journal articles, patents, and trade journals.
Below are just a few of our databases useful for technology research. For more databases with technology content, check out our Databases A-Z page and select "Technology" from the drop-down.
There are many ways you can get research materials from other libraries. In the vast majority of cases, there is no charge to you for this service!
Example:
LibrarySearch is the combined library catalog for the entire University of Maine system. You can search the entire system, or select University of Southern Maine Libraries in the drop-down.
Other helpful tips:
Most databases, as well as LibrarySearch and MaineCat, assign subjects to books and articles. A subject is a designated word or phrase that describes an idea or concept and groups all articles or books about that concept together.
