Reference Collection

A good place to start your research is in the reference collection.  Reference books offer:

  • An overview of topics
  • Background information
  • Statistical data

To browse for books on your topic, skim the Subjects with Call Numbers list.

To find specific books, use the catalog.

Reference books cannot be checked out, but copies may be made in the nearby Copy Room.

Always ask a Reference Librarian if you need assistance.
