About online databases
As a member of the Bundaberg Regional Libraries you have access to a number of online databases. Access to the majority of these databases has been made possible through the State Library of Queensland's subscription to statewide access. You are able to access these databases either via the Internet from your home computer or laptop, via the Library's wireless service, or via the Library's Internet computers.
Access is subject to change without notice.
For the State Library of Queensland databases a FREE e-services card or QPL account login is required. To register for an e-services card or QPL account go to the State Library of Queensland's account registration page and sign up. A valid email address is needed. Once signed up you will have either a card or a QPL username and password.
For many databases coverage will only be for a certain set of years. The State Library of Queensland pages have more information.
Sometimes there are restrictions on the number of users who can concurrently use a database. If you cannot connect when you first try, try again later. For example, some databases may only be accessed by 4 users at a time (statewide). These restrictions apply due to licencing arrangements. The State Library of Queensland pages have more information.
