You can search the MCC Bookstore website. Be sure to have your class schedule available as you will need the course and section numbers to be sure you are getting the correct books.

Printing from a Campus Computer

All MCC registered students have the ability to print in B/W or Color in the Library/Learning Commons and in the open Student Lab located on the upper floor of the Student Center, above the MPR, near the Student Senate and CAB offices. All registered students are automatically provided a printing stipend.

When printing using one of the MCC Student Computers in these two areas, simply open your document within the appropriate application (word, excel, browser, canvas, etc), navigate to the print function within the application, provide your EasyLogin Username and Password when prompted and the cost of the print job will be deducted from your printing stipend.

When prompted to authenticate, use your EasyLogin Username and Password.

Wireless Printing

Wireless printing is now available at MCC, but is limited to PDF documents only.   

• Go to https://print.ccsnh.edu/ & log in with your EasyLogin username and password.

A list of Databases can be browsed here. When prompted, please use your EasyLogin to log in to MCC Library e-resources. It is the same one you use for Canvas, SIS, your college email and printing from college computers. If you have trouble logging in, please see these suggestions.

You can access the databases a couple of different ways. To search all of the library's holdings (including print books and DVDs) go the library homepage and enter your search in the MCC OneSearch Box.

A list of individual databases is also available for browsing and searching here: https://library.mccnh.edu/az.php

Try clearing your cache (go to history and look for clear cache or try these shortcuts: on a Microsoft OS computer, simultaneously pressing CTRL+SHIFT+DELETE on a Mac, simultaneously pressing CMD+SHIFT+DELETE. You may also try closing and reopening your internet browser, using a private browser session, or using a different browser. If those don’t work, then contact MCC help desk by email or calling 603-206-8080.

There is no single way, but here are some tips (the video above shows tips 1 and 2, step-by-step):

1. You can add 

AND nurs*

to your keyword search in any of our databases or MCC Library OneSearch. This will look for some form of the word nurse in the title, abstract, and subject tags of the articles.

2. You can choose "advanced search" in EBSCO databases (including OneSearch, the PICO search box, and CINAHL) and find options to check off for nursing. In CINAHL you can choose nursing under Journal Subset and you can check "Any author is a nurse," a box just above the Journal Subset box. In other databases you can choose Nursing and Allied Health as a discipline. 

Please ask a librarian if you need help with these strategies.

Also, see our Nursing and PICO research guides.
