Great news! You can use OneSearch (link below) to find out what we have available. 

Here's how:

  1. Type in your topic. If you are using a phrase, use quotes around it to make more effective. Example: "media bias"
  2. On your result list under Refine My Results, select Books and hit enter. Then click Held by Library to exclude online items and get just what is physically in the library.
  3. From the result list you can see what is checked out and what is available, along with the call number so you can find it on the shelves.

Grab a Citation

Grab a citation for the book by clicking on the ellipses (...) of the book from your result list (top right of the record) and click on the quotes (") icon. Selecting a citation style (APA, Chicago/Turabian, Harvard or MLA) and then select COPY THE CITATION TO THE CLIPBOARD.

eBooks

We also have a great collection of eBooks. Go to A-Z Databases: Books & eBooks to get direct links.
