New to college research? Not sure what "scholarly articles" are?
The librarians at PCC Library can help you get all of this figured out. This guide includes just the basics, but it's a great place to start if you've never had to use scholarly or academic journal articles before. If you have questions, please ask us! Go ahead and take a look at the Help page on this guide and get familiar with all the ways you can contact a librarian.
The username and password to access databases from off campus is similar to what you use to access the PCC campus portal (myPittCC) and Moodle. For the username, use the first part of your myPittCC email address only. DO NOT include @my.pittcc.edu. The password is exactly the same as what you use to log in to the campus portal. Generic logins are available to community residents with PCC library cards, and others who are enrolled in or are affiliated with PCC programs and continuing education courses.
