Did You Know That ... ?

For ASU students, you use your pitchfork- or sun-card to checkout out books. 

For visiting MTBI students bring the books you would like to borrow, along with your photo ID, to the Information/Check-out Desk in Noble Library or Hayden Library.

You will be given a temporary Library ID card, which you may use along with your photo ID, to borrow books and reserve the computers through JULY 2014.

Introduction

To find books, use the "Library One Search" database, enter your topic in the search box.  When you get the results list, look in the left-hand column for the "Content Type" section and check the "Books/ebooks" option - this will limit the results to just books (both print and online).    

  • If you want to limit these books to just those that are online, at the top of the left-hand column, check the box for "Items with full text online". 

  • If you want to lmit these books to just those that are in print, in the left-hand column scroll down to the "Library Location" limiter and select all the options except for "online access". 

 

Library One Search  

Electronic Book Collections

Although online books can be found using Library One Search, some of the "native" search interfaces will search the full text as well - so you not only find more on the topic, you'll know exactly where in the book that information is located.  

Online books collections you may want to search in addition to Library One Search: 

  1. Safari Tech Books Online
    Computer programming books.

  2. MyiLibrary
    Books from many subject areas. 

  3. Ebrary
    Books from many subject areas.  

Sample Titles ...

The ASU Library acknowledges the twenty-three Native Nations that have inhabited this land for centuries. Arizona State University's four campuses are located in the Salt River Valley on ancestral territories of Indigenous peoples, including the Akimel O’odham (Pima) and Pee Posh (Maricopa) Indian Communities, whose care and keeping of these lands allows us to be here today. ASU Library acknowledges the sovereignty of these nations and seeks to foster an environment of success and possibility for Native American students and patrons. We are advocates for the incorporation of Indigenous knowledge systems and research methodologies within contemporary library practice. ASU Library welcomes members of the Akimel O’odham and Pee Posh, and all Native nations to the Library.
