Finding Library Materials
 |
Search our catalog to find books at Clemson Libraries. You can search by keyword, title, author, subject, or call number. |
Once you identify a book you want, note the entire call number provided in the table. Cooper Library has books on several floors; the first letter of the call number will tell you which floor to visit.
- A-P: 1st floor
- Q-Z: 5th floor
*Items from some collections are found in other areas of Cooper or other parts of campus. See our floor maps for more information.
Shelves have labels on the ends that say the range of call numbers they contain. Find the shelf that would contain your call number and look at the book labels to find where your item would be in relation to their call numbers. Clemson Libraries use the Library of Congress Classification System, so these numbers will look different from those in most public or high school libraries.
If you have any trouble locating an item, please contact the Library Services Desk at (864) 656-1557 or Ask a Librarian.
Finding eBooks
Electronic books are also available through our catalog. We subscribe to a variety of eBook collections so you can access, read, and use all types of resources that we may not have in print.
When you find a book with a link instead of a call number, use it to go directly to the full text of the book. You can also go to eBook collections directly if you want to search only in that collection.
Check out our eBooks Guide for more information & resources!
Resource Sharing
If we don't own the book you need, our Resource Sharing team is ready to help Clemson students, faculty, and staff!
PASCAL |
You can request to borrow items from other academic libraries in South Carolina through PASCAL. PASCAL Delivers is a service that allows Clemson students, faculty, and staff to borrow books from other South Carolina academic libraries. It is quicker than requesting books through ILL. |
Interlibrary Loan |
If you are looking for something that we do not have and is unavailable through PASCAL, you can use InterlibaryLoan to request that item from another institution. Use Worldcat to begin your search. |
