Books
- To find anthropology books that are available in Blackwell Library and
other libraries throughout the University System of Maryland, use the
online catalog.
Registered borrowers at SU may use the catalogs "hold" feature to order
books from other libraries at no cost. Books generally arrive within 3
- 4 weekdays.
- To find books in libraries outside the Maryland system, search
WorldCat, a catalog of books and other materials in more libraries
worldwide.
- Books not available through the
online catalog can be ordered through
Interlibrary Loan. This service provides access to books in
more than 8,000 libraries throughout the country. However,
delivery often takes several weeks and the lender may charge a fee.
Additional information is available on the Interlibrary Loan pages.

found in the literature of other disciplines, it is important to
use several databases that seem likely to contain your topic.
