WorldCat
September 2, 2008
Can’t find it at CUA? Not available through the consortium? What to do?!
I’d suggest trying WorldCat: www.worldcat.org
It’s just what it sounds like – a world catalog! Search for resources, enter your zip code, and see what libraries have the item(s) locally. You might be able to get a copy of something from a local public library (the DC public libraries have many metro-accessible locations), at the Library of Congress, one of the numerous Brookland-area houses of study, the University of Maryland, or any other of the countless area libraries.
And if you’d like us to have the material(s) delivered to the CUA Circulation Desk, just fill out an Interlibrary Loan Request.
