Why can't you just give me the Username and Passwords here on the website?!!!

This service is only available to New Hampshire library patrons through a contract between the database providers and the State Library. For that reason, we cannot make the Username and Passwords available via the website, where anyone in the world could gain access. Please stop by the library for a handout containing all of the password information, or call us at 673-3330.
