Online Resources

The Louisville Public Library has a plethora of online resources students, and their parents and educators can access to aid in both scholastic pursuits and personal entertainment.

From educational databases and newspapers, to book recommendations and craft tutorials, we have a vast collection of virtual offerings to support our patrons.

The Student 1 Louisville program will allow students attending schools within the Louisville Public Library service area to easily access the Library's online research databases via their student ID and their first name as PIN.
