Need sources for a school assignment? Looking for an article you thought you saved? Paris Public Library is pleased to begin providing online access to Readers Guide. Readers Guide indexes more than 200 general-interest magazines from 1994 to the current year.

When you click the Readers Guide link, the Wilson Web screen appears. Entering your Paris library barcode number (no spaces) will take you to a search screen. Be sure to choose at least one of the databases at the top before searching. Virtually all the results you see will be links to the complete text of articles that may be read online, printed, or downloaded. Click exit when finished.

Our Find Information tab has been renamed Articles & More to emphasize the ability to search for articles, but it still includes links to legal information, local information, tax forms and more.

Would you like to be part of a monthly daytime book club? Come to an organizational meeting at 1:30pm on Wednesday, September 15. We will meet to decide when to meet regularly and what to read first. If you can't attend but are interested, please email.
