Video tutorial on using Power Search

The Power Search database is a powerful research tool and you have 24/7 access. This tool searches across ALL of the GALE databases we subscribe to (Academic OneFile, World History in Context, High School in Context and U.S. History in Context) all at one time. 

Note: If you are accessing this database off campus you will need a password. If you do not remember it, please email Ms. Stone.
