New Databases
Proquest Ancestry Library- Whether you are trying to piece together your family tree for the first time or are a dedicated genealogy enthusiast, this database can help! The ancestry library has a collection of searchable census, birth, marriage, military and death records for every state in the US. It also contains a large collection of passenger lists from ships transporting immigrants during the last two centuries and a smaller selection of miscellaneous genealogical information including wills, court records, and local history books. In addition, it links to online forums where users can ask each other questions based on the information they already know about their families. This service must be used at the library. Contact the reference desk for detailed log-in instructions.
Learning Express Library - Are you preparing for a very important exam? The Learning Express Library allows users to prepare for a wide range of standardized exams by taking online practice tests. Subjects include SAT, GRE, US Citizenship Exam, ASVAB, PRAXIS and many many more! Practice exams and skills reinforcement sessions are also available for primary and secondary school students. Adults may find the databases' tutorials on business writing, resume writing, and job seeking skills to be especially useful. This service is available at the library or at home to all residents with valid Secaucus library cards. Contact the reference desk for detailed log-in instructions.
