Try the WCU Libraries

The library doesn't buy many textbooks, but it is fast and easy to check whether we have one.

  1. Enter the title of the book in the search box on the library homepage. Where it says All Items, select the dropdown and choose Books from the menu.

     TIP: Many textbooks have similar titles.  Add in the book's subtitle or the last name of one of the authors to make your search more specific.
  2. If we own the book, it should appear in the top few results. 
    • If it's a print book, you can then request that it be sent to you. 
    • For ebooks, you can access it by clicking on the Online Access link. You will be asked to log in with your WCU email address and password before you can use the ebook.
