Bentonville Public Library's digital resources are made possible by Arkansas Traveler Database, individual sponsorship, and by using budgeted library funds.
Some database access is seamless, some access requires your library card number to be submitted.
In many cases, some of our digital resources have usage requirements as dictated by the database provider, including:
- Some databases can only be accessed on BPL computers.
- Some databases can only be accessed when not logged in to a school IP.
- Some databases require personal log-in information to track your progress. (BPL will not have access to this information.)
- Some databases require you to request access from the library, which may not receive an immediate response.
The listing should note if the database requires one or more of these conditions.
Please be aware, some library resources contain mature content. According to library policy, parents or legal guardians are responsible for deciding what resources are appropriate for their children. Parents should supervise use and discuss appropriate content with their children.
