Find nearly everything owned by the Cornell University Library by searching the Cornell Library Catalog. This includes books, journals, magazines, newspapers, videotapes, audiotapes, music CDs, CD-ROMs, DVDs, manuscripts, microfilm, microfiche--in short, anything the Library owns.
This online catalog also allows you to recall or put a hold on items that are currently checked out by other library users. Clicking on the My Account link at upper right allows you to see what you have checked out; you can also renew your books from this page.

Two things to remember about the Cornell Library Catalog:
If we don't have a book that you need or if we have the book but it is checked out:
Borrow Direct
Click on the link above, connect to Borrow Direct, search for the book and if it's available from another BorrowDirect partner library, we will have it shipped to Cornell. Borrowing period is one month. Books usually arrive in 3 or 4 days. (This service is for books only).
If we don't own an item that you need (any item--journal article, DVD, dissertation, etc.):
Interlibrary Loan Service
If Cornell Library does not have an item you need, especially journal articles, use our interlibrary loan service to request a free scanned copy of the article you want. Directions for accessing these scans, usually PDFs, will arrive in your email in just a few days.
We invite you to check with the reference staff if you are having trouble finding a particular book or journal. We can help!
