Where to begin?
Identifying and getting your hands on published works on your topic of research is easier than ever.
Consult the Cornell catalog to identify titles available locally. Request titles held regionally via Borrow Direct (3-5 days). For books held at Columbia University, a Borrow Direct request will only take two days to reach you at Cornell. Use WorldCat to identify titles held nationally and internationally and request them via Interlibrary Loan (ILL).
Questions? To request that Cornell acquire materials for the local collection, contact Sócrates Silva or suggest an item through this form.
