Two Useful Library Databases to Check Out: Price It! and Legal Forms

Library DatabasesUse your library card number if asked to log in

Your public library subscribes to a number of useful databases, which are accessible from anywhere you have Internet access. All you need is your library card.

Today we're highlighting two very useful databases with information that may be difficult to find elsewhere online from a reputable source.

Price It! Antiques & Collectibles
This database is powered by GoAntiques.com and provides resources, information, tips and tools for you to research items. Turn to it when you're cleaning out the attic, handling an estate, scouring yard sales or checking out a local antique store. Price It! provides realized price data and images of items.

Legal Forms Library
This database contains Arizona legal forms for many situations. You can search by category or title to find a particular legal form, then download it to your computer to fill out. This database contains legal forms for everything from adoption to wills.

Library Closed November 10-12

The library will be closed from November 10 through November 12 in honor of the Veteran's Day holiday. We'll reopen at 9am on Tuesday, November 13. Have a safe holiday weekend!
