3. Find a work you're interested in and note it's location and number to retrieve it

  • Available Online: this is an eBook; click the Available online link to read it digitally
  • Available at [location]: this is a physical item; write down the location and number to retrieve it 
    Note: it may not be in the Main Library (Sharp 6th Floor) as the Library Search includes all Special Collections at SAIC.
