If you cannot locate what you need in the cataLION, try these other catalogs to find materials in other libraries, which can be interlibrary loaned.

Another source for locating books is a database called WorldCat. This is a catalog for thousands of libraries. Use this if you cannot find enough books at Albright. [Probably not necessary for this class].

Library staff will do everything possible to get your materials to you in a timely fashion. Click the Getting Your Materials tab above for instructions.
