July 1, 2022 Database Changes
The MBLC and MLS have concluded procurement negotiations for the next contract period, beginning July 1, 2022. A quick reference guide is available detailing the changes and additions to the statewide database program. Links for the new products will be available as soon as possible for libraries to update their sites. Products which are being retained from the previous contract should not require any changes for continued access.
Find your library's links to databases like The Boston Globe, Gale's Academic OneFile and Britannica Library for your website.
