To find books, use OneSearch on the library's homepage and choose "Books" in the Search drop down menu, then enter in the title, author, ISBN # or keywords if looking for books on a topic.
One Search includes both print and online books (ebooks), so to limit results to either books at a particular campus, or limit to just online books, use the filters (limiters) on the left:
Ebooks related to counseling and psychology can also be searched in the following databases:
