We have many books on the history of Long Island towns in the Reference area. Come in and speak with a librarian who can show you the books.
If you must use two databases, the best ones for the history of Mineola are Newsday and the Historical New York Times.
Use the search "Mineola and history" in the Newsday databases.
Use the search "Mineola New York and history" for the Historical New York Times.
To access these databases, go the the Library homepage, library.ncc.edu, click on databases, and then select the databases above from the list.
If you need more help, come into the library and see a librarian.
