You can search for physical books, e-books and book chapters in LibrarySearch. Login and search using keywords that describe your topic, then refine your results to 'Books' and 'Book chapters' under Resource Type. If you only want online resources such as e-books and online book chapters, further limit your results to 'Online' under Show Only.

In your search box:

• There is a default AND relationship between search terms separated by a space
• Use OR to find any of your keywords.
• Group OR words using brackets.
• Find "exact phrases" with double quotation marks.
• Add an asterisk * to part of a word to find different endings and plurals.
