Why use Google Books?
Google Books searches the full-text of books. It is great for narrow topics because it lets you search within the text of books--you can see the table of contents, index or a portion of the contents of the book. You can then locate the book in a nearby library.
The call number ranges below are mostly on the 3rd Floor East of Ellis Library. Reference books (dictionaries, encyclopedias, etc.) are on the 1st Floor.
