To find a specific book, type the title into the main search bar in Library Search. You can also add quotation marks to titles to make your search more accurate.

To find a physical book via a keyword search in Library Search, filtering access to “At the Library” and resource type to "Book" will help you focus your results. You can also use more of the Library Search filters such as collection, era, genre, or subject etc. to further refine.

The Emory libraries may carry different editions and different formats of some books. When you have selected your chosen title, make sure to note the library where it is held as well as the call number so that you can find it in the stacks. See this guide for more information about where to find books held in the Woodruff Library, Music and Media Library, Health Sciences Center Library, and Science Commons.

If Emory does not have a copy of the book you require, you have a couple of different options:

1. You may be able to request the book through Emory's Interlibrary loan services.

2. You may be able to submit a purchase request to the library.

For general help using the library catalog please visit the Library Search Guide or contact AskALibrarian for assistance.
