When searching library catalogs keep in mind:
- Alternating between keyword and subject searching will probably be the most fruitful approach.
- When you're searching for books you need to be much more general with your language.
- Use the information in the detailed record to help you assess whether or not the book will be useful.
- Remember that in some cases, you may simply need to turn to other resources, possibly including book reviews, to get detailed information about a book before you order it.
You can search the Reed Library and Summit using the catalog.
Request books from Summit libraries with your name and the barcode number from your Reed ID. To request books from WorldCat libraries, you'll be linked to your Illiad (interlibrary loan) page, where you'll need to use your Reed network login and password to complete your request.
