Magazine and Newspaper Databases
Logging on from home or work?
Remote access to several of our databases is currently unavailable. We are working to resolve this issue.
You can log into almost all of the databases listed below from outside the library using your library barcode number. If you don't have a library card, you may register for one online.
Please make sure that you are accessing this page via http://www.carnegielibrary.org/ and NOT clpgh.org. Click here to correct.
Those databases specified with "No Remote Access" must be used from a computer inside the library. "Remote Access (CLP Card)" databases are only accessible with a Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh (CLP) library card. Click here if not a CLP cardholder.
