Use the Library Catalog to Find Books

 

Searching for a Book

  1. Use the library catalog to find books in the holdings of the Libraries.
  2. Keyword searching is the default but searches can be focused by selecting other options, including a specific author search or limiting by date or location.

 

Understanding the Results 

After searching, look for these details:

1. Is this book in print or is it an e-book?

2. If the book is in print, is it AVAILABLE? 

3. If the book is checked out or if you want staff to retrieve the book for you, click on "Pick It Up" and follow the steps to request the book. 

4. Select the available pick-up location is best for you.
