Library Resources
The Oil Creek Library District maintains subscriptions to two databases, Learn-A-Test and HeritageQuest, for the benefit of the patrons at its member libraries. The District also has a collection of Teen Book Club Kits and Bi-Folkal Kits, which it loans to libraries for senior programming. Additionally, there is an ever growing collection of professional materials. These materials are available for loan to member libraries and are a source of reference for the District Consultant.

Famous quotes containing the words library and/or resources:
“Madam, a circulating library in a town is as an evergreen tree of diabolical knowledge; it blossoms through the year. And depend on it ... that they who are so fond of handling the leaves, will long for the fruit at last.”
—Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
“Somehow we have been taught to believe that the experiences of girls and women are not important in the study and understanding of human behavior. If we know men, then we know all of humankind. These prevalent cultural attitudes totally deny the uniqueness of the female experience, limiting the development of girls and women and depriving a needy world of the gifts, talents, and resources our daughters have to offer.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
