Database Passwords

Woodward Academy pays for access to databases to enhance the quality of student research.

Sometimes called the "deep web" or "hidden web" because the information is behind a paywall and requires a paid subscription.
Information comes from a variety of source types-- scholarly journals, magazines, newspapers, reference books
Faster access to more reliable, authoritative information for academic work

Most databases may be accessed on campus without a password.

Off campus, you may have to enter a user name and a password that can be found via the link below:
