ANSO 205: Ways of Knowing: Books

Library Catalog

Use the library catalog to search for materials in the Williams libraries.  Using the catalog, you may search for 

  • books and videos 
  • full-text articles from selected library databases  
  • citations to articles in the library databases or beyond (to request through interlibrary loan) 

Search Tips: 

  • Searches limited to Books, Articles and More will include articles + books 
  • Searches limited to All Items at Williams will exclude articles 
  • Use the Advanced Search mode to create more effective searches 

Worldcat

Use Williams Worldcat to search for books and films beyond the Williams libraries. 

  • Search by author, title, subject the same way you search the Williams Library Catalog 
  • If the book you find is not at Williams, request it by clicking on Request Item  
  • Use the Advanced Search to create more effective searches 

 

Research Tip: Borrow It

Borrow It!

If we don't own a book, or if our copy is checked out, you can borrow a copy from another library. Just search for the book in Williams WorldCat, and then choose "Request Item" to borrow it.

If you need help, just ask!
