NCWISE OWL NCWISE OWL is a free research Website that is available to North Carolina students, teachers, and parents that has several periodical databases and two online encyclopedias. It also includes Gale’s DISCovering Authors.  One of the highlights of NC WISE OWL is remote access. This allows parents and students to access from home all of the NCWISE OWL resources even the subscription databases, providing they have Internet access.  If students need a reminder of the passwords they can see Mrs. Cox, Mr. Gurley, Miss Hedrick, or Mrs. Matzke.
