BIOL 105: Find Books

Role of Zoological Collections with Professor Gunther.

Find Your Book

If you find a physical book, it will have something called a call number. The call number is like its home address. Copy and paste any call number into the Call Number Locator below to see where it lives in the library. 

A call number will look something like this: 

SF408.3 .E84 1995

Book Search

While you're more likely to use articles in your research, books are still useful when looking at larger-picture issues, background information, history, or trends!

In order to find books on any desired topic, use the search box below. This is the same search box on our library homepage. Search in SU Libraries, all UM System Libraries, or libraries worldwide. Most of the books that you find owned by another University of Maryland System school can be ordered - for free! - and delivered to the SU Library for your use.  Email me and I can show you how to request these books.

You can also use this search to find other types of sources like journal articles and images.
