Communication - Finding Books

  At the University of Washington

• UW Libraries Catalog

• UW WorldCat
  Search for items held in UW Libraries, the UW Law Library, and libraries around the world. Request items not available at UW. View some articles online.

  At other libraries

• Center for Research Libraries
  CRL holdings are especially strong for archival materials, newspapers, and foreign dissertations.
• OCLC WorldCat
  Union catalog to research libraries worldwide.
• OhioLink
  This catalog includes the tables of contents for many, many books. Use it to identify chapters published about your topic in books published more than a few years ago (when the UW Libraries began adding tables of contents to the UW Libraries Catalog). Once you identify a book that has chapters about your topic, check the UW Libraries Catalog to see if we have the book.
