As a Shaker Library and CLEVNET cardholder, you can access high quality databases of full text periodicals from within the library and from home. Cardholders in good standing also have access to databases provided by OPLIN (Ohio Public Library Information Network). Additionally, Shaker Heights Public Library purchases some databases that only Shaker cardholders are able to access from home. For your convenience, those databases are also included in this list.
Please have your library card number and password/PIN available to access these resources from home. Please note that access to some databases is restricted for use only within the Library. Those databases will be listed with a note (In-Library Use Only).
