The books in the library are organized according to Library of Congress subject headings. This means books are organized by subject rather than by title or author.
From the library homepage, choose Advanced Search.
Type in your search terms then go to Content Type select Book/eBook.
Select Search to begin your search.
If you only want print books, under Refine your search select Physical Books in Library Catalog.
Unless you're looking for a known title, try to use only a few words or phrases.
Check your spelling. The catalog is very literal, and a misspelled word will match no items.
If we don't have what you're looking for, search other libraries' collections through Prospector to request the book be sent to UCCS from another library. If this does not work, contact us for more assistance.
