Search the Library Catalog for Books

When searching the catalog, try to keep your searches simple, connecting a few key concepts with either AND, OR, or NOT. 

- Be sure to click the tab that says Books before submitting your search! 

- On the results page, you can limit to "ebooks" if you choose. 

 

E-book Databases

While e-books are accessible through WorldCat Discovery , another option is to search directly in the e-book databases listed below. 

Working from off campus? If so, you will need to log in with your Kean email username and password.

Find Books in Other Libraries

Have you searched WorldCat Discovery, and find you need more books on your topic?  Access other library catalogs through the links below.  If you identify books that look interesting, either request them by interlibrary loan or borrow them in person from other New Jersey academic libraries.

Request Books from Other Libraries through Interlibrary Loan

Books or journal articles not owned by the Nancy Thompson Learning Commons may be requested from other libraries through interlibrary loan. Patrons will be notified by e-mail when books are ready to be picked up at the Circulation Desk. Books will be due back to the Learning Commons by the specified due date. Copies of articles and book chapters will be emailed to the patron. Select the appropriate form from the page linked below, then complete and submit the form online.
