BCCLS libraries helping all of us!

BCCLS Libraries Expanding Local Virtual Services

Some BCCLS libraries have been able to expand their local services to help all BCCLS patrons—that's you!


Newspaper Archive

The Ridgewood Public Library has temporarily expanded access to Newspaper Archives to all BCCLS cardholders working remotely, courtesy of Newspaper Archives.

To access Newspaper Archives please email or send a chat message (blue box to the bottom right of the webpage) with the following information:

· Your first and last name

· Your BCCLS card number

Upon receipt of this information, one of our Reference Librarians will send you the log-in information.

Remote access will be re-evaluated on a monthly basis.


Moazine - Korean eMagazine

The Paramus Public Library has received permissions from Moazine to provide access to their service to all of BCCLS while our libraries are closed. The database can be accessed through the main page of the Paramus website. Patrons should enter the number “12345” instead of their library card number.

Instructions for Korean Language Magazine and E-Book Access

Users who want access must go to:

· Go to Yes24 website. (http://bccls.yes24library.com)

· Create an account

· User waits for verification email from Paramus that they have been approved

Log back in to start using the magazines and books.


Free resources collected by BCCLS staff and librarians

In addition to all of the free on-line activities offered by your local libraries, BCCLS is happy to share the following free online resources to Pass the Pandemic. These links include BCCLS resources as well as resources beyond BCCLS.


BONUS: Missing your Broadway fix?

Check out The Shows Must Go On every weekend. Every Friday at 7:00pm they will post a full-length Broadway show on their YouTube channel. These shows will only be available for 48 hours, so don't miss them! They've already shown Jesus Christ Superstar, The Phantom of the Opera, and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. What will it be this weekend? You'll have to wait and see!
