• Encompass Search
  Encompass Search finds information by searching through a massive collection of books, scholarly journals, newspapers and magazines, dissertations, conference proceedings, music, video, maps, and more. Rather than searching in separate databases, Encompass Search helps you find resources from many catalogs and databases quickly and easily, all from a single search box. To find only books, use the Books limit on the left sidebar of your search results page. Many items will be in Trexler Library; note the call number and status of the item to check its location and availability. For items not in Trexler Library, use the Interlibrary Loan to request a copy from another library.

• Google Books
  Search books via Google. Some full text is linked directly; otherwise, search the library catalog by title to check for full text online or in the library.

For information on why to cite your sources and how to avoid plagiarism, see the Get Started with Library Research: Cite Sources guide.
