Search engines are a fine place to start a search of the Internet, but often the results are unsatisfactory. Besides, the Internet isn't the only place to find information. Our library has gathered together some great resources for you to use to find the information you need.

• Use EBSCOhost to find magazine articles.
• Use Iowa Locator or WorldCat to find books, CDs, DVDs and other items in libraries
• Use HealthInfoIowa to start your search for health information
• Use Learning Express for taking all kinds of practice tests from elementary school math to citizenship materials

The subject guides give you a great place to find information on travel, sports, consumer goods and more.

Iowa Heritage Digital Collections and Iowa Publications Online can help you dig deep into all things Iowa.

Searchers now have integrated access to the 9,000+ map items in the Iowa Digital Library
