Need to locate information in a comprehensive medical or basic science textbook? The Library offers many such high-demand texts in both online and print versions. Some online versions contain material not in the print edition and some are updated continuously.
Online copies of comprehensive texts can be found on the Library Web site in more than one way:

• Click on the “Find a Book/Journal” heading (under the rotating banner) to see a list of the top sources for electronic textbooks. A few texts, such as Harrison’s Online, are are listed under their own titles. Other online texts are bundled together into packages such as Access Medicine, MD Consult and Stat!Ref. Click the link to the package, login as needed, and then navigate to the list of the textbooks in that package.
• Click on the “Electronic Books” link (immediately below the “Find a Book/Journal” header link) to reach a page where you can search for books by keyword or subject.

The Library Web site can be reached from any campus computer or from off campus using Cisco Virtual Private Network (VPN). For more information on access from off campus, see the Off-Campus Access page of the Library Web site.
Print copies of the latest editions of high-demand textbooks are kept in two locations in the South Campus (main) Library:

• In the “Core Collection” shelves to the right of the Library entrance.
• In the “Academic Reserve” collection behind the Information Desk, to the left of the entrance.

Other textbooks are kept on the Top Floor of the Library. Print books in all locations are arranged by call numbers, which are assigned based on subject matter.
Information Desk staff will be happy to assist you in finding the text you need in either location. You can also search the online catalog to find out which books the Library owns and where they are located.
