UNM-Valencia Campus Library:
Finding Books and E-books

Search LIBROS

The library catalog, LIBROS, is the search engine for browsing the library (kind of like Google). No matter what you are looking for, the LIBROS catalog is a good place to start because it can tell you several things:

  • if the library has what you're looking for, which edition or format and provides a citation
  • if there is a physical copy in available, where it is (Location and Call Number), and if it is checked out
  • if the library has an electronic version, it provides a link to download it
  • if the item is available at another library, it can be requested through Interlibrary Loan (ILL)

 

Search Tips

  • Choose your most important keywords; consider synonyms, conceptual relationships.
  • Take advantage of established subject headings and Boolean operators (and, or, not).
  • Use the "Advanced Search" to combine search terms.
  • Limit results by date, format, language, etc.
  • Click ont he blue title to open the item, preview or access the full text.
