Digital Resources from the Library
Both the THS Media Center and the Davidson County Public Library offer many digital resources that can be accessed from home. You can download audiobooks, ebooks, videos, magazines, and more.
The easiest place to get digital media while at home is from the North Carolina Digital Library. Through the StudentAccess program, you have
access because you are a TCS student. Besides your TCS Chromebook, you can read ebooks, listen to audiobooks, watch movies, etc. on other devices like tablets and cell phones, too.
See the PDF file below for instructions for accessing the North Carolina Digital Library. Then keep on scrolling for even MORE resources!

NC WiseOwl has two main providers of research databases -- EBSCO and Gale. Each has a variety of subject-specific databases that can be searched individually or several at a time. Which one you use depends on what you are looking for and which interface you prefer.
