Look for Books

LCSC Library Catalog - provides information about the materials owned by the LCSC Library and other North Idaho Academic Libraries, including North Idaho College and the University of Idaho.  Also has a link to WIN Libraries, so you can search Gonzaga, Whitworth, and VALNet Libraries.

WSU Library Catalog - Search on "Keyword" to see if the WSU Library has any books on the general topic you are researching.  Keep your search BRIEF with just a word or a few words!

WorldCat - A catalog of items held at libraries throughout the world.  Many of these materials can be borrowed through inter-library loan.  Try limiting to LCSC Library collection first; you can identify chapters in books in our collection.

Google Books - Info from their Website:  "Just do a search on Google Book Search or on Google.com. When we find a book whose content contains a match for your search terms, we'll link to it in your search results. Click a book title and you'll see, like a card catalog entry, some basic information about the book. You may also see a few snippets of text from the book showing your search term in context. If the publisher or author has given us permission through our Partner Program then you'll see a few full pages from the book and if the book is out of copyright, you'll be able to page through the entire book."  Click on the "About This Book" link and look for a link called "Find This Book in a Library" to locate the nearest library holdings.
