Selected Books and e-Books

General collection and Oversize books can be borrowed for three weeks and renewed for another three weeks. Books are filed in alpha-numeric order on the shelf by "call number",  a unique location code number. If you click on a book in the gallery below, and it's a print book, you will open the library catalog record with the information you need to request the book by phone - be sure to copy down the call number, title and author.

E-books are listed in OneSearch along with printed books, and can be used for research exactly the same way you would use a traditional book. If a book in the gallery below is an e-Book, it will open on your computer screen, but it may require you to login to open it if you are off-campus. 

You can limit your search to e-books by selecting "book" as the resource type, and selecting availability of "online".  Most e-books allow you to print or download a certain number of pages to your device, but how many varies from one publisher to another.

Reference Books

Reference materials have detailed information about various topics. They must be used in the library. This means that they are always available for students.
