Research Map: Books/Ebooks

The GIL-Find catalog is an easy way to locate books, ebooks, and streaming videos.

Books & More

Use the Library's GIL-Find catalog to find:

  • Books & eBooks
  • DVDs
  • Streaming Videos
  • Journals by title
  • Items physically in the library

Pro Tip: Don't rule out books!

Think a book is too long? Often a chapter or page is all you need.

Look in the Table of Contents or Index to see if any parts of the book look interesting. In e-books, you can even search the contents!

You can request books from other libraries in the GIL Find catalog and pick them up at the campus of your choice.

Pro Tip: What's NOT in the catalog?

The catalog search won't help you identify articles from journals, magazines, and newspapers. Use databases to find articles.
