You can often locate a copy of the books, e-books, and articles needed for your classes at the library.
Here are a few things to try:

1. Search for your book, e-book, or article using LionSearch. 

• For the best results use the Advanced Search option. Enter both TITLE and AUTHOR.
   

2. Sometimes an instructor will make selected class materials available by placing them on Course Reserve.

• To see what is available for your class at the library (books, videos, etc.) check the Course Reserves list using the search box on the University Libraries website (see image below).
   
• To see what is available for your class online via the library (e-books, book chapters, and articles) check the Electronic Reserves List.
