We are fortunate in Calvert County to have access to some amazing online resources as a part of the Southern Maryland Regional Library Association and SAILOR. What is even more incredible is that all it takes to access these resources is a Calvert Library card! While we do have print resources that you can access in-person at our four Calvert Library locations, we provide our customers with quality online information resources that can be accessed 24/7 on our website.
The Southern Maryland Regional Library Association system contracts with a variety of vendors that include:
· Gale Virtual Reference Library
· Brainfuse Help Now (Calvert Library’s online live tutoring help)
· just to name a few.
These databases provide access to about 20,000 full-text magazines, journals, newspapers, reference materials, and other specialized information sources.
As area students return to school, many students are thinking about test preparation materials to get an edge on the SAT, ACT, and AP exams. Instead of pricy private tutors or paying for a prep course, Calvert Library customers have access to a free online database called the LearningExpress Library where their library card connects them to practice exams for the SAT and ACT as well as AP practice guides in various subjects.
LearningExpress Library is an incredible tool for users of all ages. From fourth grade elementary level math and reading skill improvement to higher level math such as Calculus to career specific practice tests, the site has a plethora of practical educational resources.
GED students will find the full range of subject-based practice exams, and the list of medical field licensing practice exams is incredible. Civil service applicants will find a great way to prep for any upcoming application eligibility exam, and those heading to the military will find ASVAB preparation materials right at their fingertips. And it’s all free to Calvert Library card holders.
Before you spend money on preparation materials, be sure to check out what your library card can do for you. For more information about Calvert Library online resources or to utilize the LearningExpress Library, visit us online at http://calvert.lib.md.us
