About these Tutorials

Resource: North Carolina Libraries for Virtual Education (NC LIVE) offers the citizens of North Carolina online access to complete articles from over 16,000 newspapers, journals, magazines and encyclopedias, indexing for over 25,000 periodical titles, and access to over 25,000 online print and audio books. NC LIVE is available free of charge for library patrons, researchers, and educators from four communities of interest -- public libraries, community colleges, the state's university system, and members of the North Carolina Association of Independent Colleges and Universities. NC LIVE can be accessed from within an affiliated library or from home using a password.

Please Note: NC LIVE is constantly changing, so these tutorials may be out of date. We will work to get updated tutorials as soon as possible. Don't hesitate to stop by the library for help, or email your questions to library@blueridge.edu.
