Information Sources - Books

Books provide both indepth and broad-based coverage of a topic.

Use a book:

  • to put your topic in context.
  • to find background information and an overview of a topic
  • to find summaries of research
  • books contain bibliographies which can be useful to help locate other sources.

How do I find a book?

Search the Library Catalogue to find a book in the University Library. This will tell you the book's call number and location in the Library for a print book or provide a link for an electronic book.
