Google Search

Google Scholar Search

Google Scholar is a great place to find articles.  Find something we don't have?  Use ILL to request it from another library.

Interlibrary Loan

Materials not owned by WCU Libraries can be requested, for free, from other libraries.  To do so use Interlibrary Loan.

Where to Look for Books

To find books in our Library search our Catalog

To find books in other libraries use World Cat.  Request any promising titles using Interlibrary Loan.  Try EZborrow first for books then ILLIAD for articles and any books not in EZborrow. 

Finding Articles

Use these online databases to search for articles pertaining to your topic.  These can be accessed from both on and off campus.
