How can I search for books outside of Emorys libraries?
• Consider using WorldCat , RLIN, or the Center for Research Libraries, “union catalogs” of items held in research and special libraries; this is a good way to determine what books have been published on a topic. • Our Other Library Catalogs page provides links to the library catalogs of other Atlanta area colleges and universities. What if Emory doesn’t have the journal article or book you need? • You can request the article or book via Interlibrary Loan. It’s free, but it takes time (at least several days, often 10 days to 2 weeks) so plan ahead. All requested items are held for you at the Circulation Desk on Level 3; you will receive an email message when a requested item is available. • You can photocopy an article or borrow a book from another Atlanta area library yourself: You may borrow materials from Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia State University, and the University of Georgia using your EmoryCard. You can also borrow materials from other local colleges/universities
