General Engineering Resources: Using the Library

How can you find accurate, appropriate, and timely information on general engineering subjects? The guide is an introduction to varied information sources within engineering, from books, journals, and databases to patents and standards.

Need a book or article the library doesn't have? Use ILL.

Resources not owned by the Campbell University Libraries can be borrowed from other libraries through ILLiad, an interlibrary loan (ILL) system available to Campbell faculty, staff, and students as an aid to research and study. Request it through our Interlibrary Loan service and we will borrow it from another library.  This service is free of cost.  Please allow up to 4-5 days for book requests, and 2-3 days for articles.

Check out this online tutorial to learn how to use ILLiad.
