Research

Databases

CPL provides access to information beyond Google. With library databases you can read scholarly articles, car repair manuals, and more — things that would cost money to access on the web.

Books and More

When used in conjunction with our Catalog, the Books and More page is a great way to get recommendations. May We Suggest, blog links, and bestseller lists are available for browsing. When searching, our search tools make it easy and fun.

eBooks

The eBooks page has information and links for loading your Kindle, iPad, Nook, kobo, or other weirdly-named device with digital books. Some books can be read online, and audiobooks are also available.

Blogs

If you'd like to keep up with all the great things we're doing, the best way is to read (and RSS Feedsubscribe to) our blog.

Languages

The Languages page includes links to books, periodicals, and DVDs in over 50 different languages. For other local libraries, see the International Books and International Periodicals pages.

Green Resources

CPL is committed to protecting the environment, especially locally. For tips and local resources, check out the Canton Green Pages:
