Catalog Search Tips:
You can search the Library's catalog for books, magazines, DVDs, downloadable audiobooks and much more. You can place holds, renew items and check your account, too.

How Do I Learn to Use the Catalog and Premium Search (Databases)?
The Library staff is here to help! Request a one-on-one demo from one of the Information Services Librarians. They can show you how to find the best information from a variety of Research and Reference resources, including the library’s catalog, magazine databases, the Internet, and much more. Questions? Check out our Database FAQs or Ask Us!

How Do I Get Journal Articles From Other Libraries?
If the full-text article isn't available in one of the online journal databases or here in print, we can order articles for you from other libraries. Fill out the Magazine/Journal Article Request Form or simply ask at the Information Services Desk to fill out the paper form. We'll notify you when it arrives.
How Do I Get Books, DVDs, CDs and more From Other Libraries?
If you see something that you want in the catalog, but it’s checked out or at another library, you can place a hold on it, or fill out the Book Request Form online. You may always ask us in-person, by IM, chat or on the phone, too. We will notify you when the item is available to be picked up.
