WorldCat

Looking for books? Our collection here is quite substantial, but no library has everything. If, after you've checked our catalog, you might want to try WorldCat if you still need books. WorldCat has records of books held in libraries all over the state and country, so if we don't have it, maybe someone else does. Then if you want it, we will get it for you through inter-library loan, there's a link for that service right in the WorldCat record.

In WorldCat, if we own the item, it says so, otherwise there is a link that says "Request an Inter-Library Loan." Just click on that and fill out the form. (If you never used the service before, you'll just have to click on the "first time users" link to set up an account.)
