Searching for Books in Dugan Library

Books from Other Libraries

Since it is not possible for our library to have books on every topic on our shelves, we provide a way for you to search for books from other libraries.

You'll want to search WorldCat Discovery. Just as our library catalog allows you to search what we own, WorldCat will search libraries from all around the world.

If you find a book that you would be interested in borrowing, this is called interlibrary loan.  This a free service that we provide for you as a student at Newman University. However, there are a couple of things to remember, the book is not yours to keep and it needs to be returned by the due date given from the lending library. You can request to borrow books and videos.

WorldCat Discovery

Search WorldCat to discover books not owned by our library. You can submit a request to borrow items from other libraries. This is a free service for NU students.

The video above reviews how to request a book from another library.
