Books and eBooks
You can find books and book chapters using Library Search. Enter relevant keywords and filter your search by resource type, selecting 'books'. You can also add other relevant limiters, e.g. date ranges.
- If you have a specific reference to a book or book chapter that you would like to find e.g. your textbook, search for the book title in Library Search.
- If the title is not very unique, trying adding the author's surname to your search (e.g. Occupational Therapy Stein).
- Once you have found the title and edition you require, check which campus(es) the title is available from, and if it is available as an e-book.
