JSTOR!

The Terrebonne Parish Library System is proud to now offer JSTOR access from within any of its branches. JSTOR, in case you don't know, stands for "Journal Storage," and is a database of scholarly academic journals. If you're a high-school or college student (or just an intellectually curious person) seeking to do research from refereed, university-level journals from some pretty prestigious content providers, come in to any branch and log on to JSTOR just by going to http://www.jstor.org.

In case you're curious, the content providers include Cambridge University Press, Wiley-Blackwell, The African Studies Association, The Johns Hopkins University Press, The MIT Press, The University of Chicago Press, and too many others to mention, really.

If you or someone you know is a student at Fletcher Technical Community College, be sure to spread the word.
