Engineering Research Guide:Find Books

If you know exactly what you are looking for, use an Author or Title search in the Library Catalog.

If you are not sure what you need, use a Keyword search

• For engineering related keyword searches, type in (or copy & paste) the following:
  • engineer* AND your topic

Note: The * used in the search phrase above is truncating the word to its root spelling.  This tells the catalog to search for any word that begins with the letters that precede the *.  For example: engineer* will find engineer, engineering, engineered, etc.

• Replace the words your topic  with other topics you want included, such as:
  • mechanical, civil, aeronautic, etc.
  • principle, practice, measurements, etc.
  • structural analysis, biomolecular principles, unit testing, etc.
  • encyclopedia, bibliography, translation, etc.

• To add additional concepts or terms use the word AND, for example:
  • engineer* AND mechanical AND bibliography

This should get you started searching for items relating to engineering.

If you need anything Bell Library doesn't own, Interlibrary Loan is the service that can find those materials to you!

Usually, we'll be able to get the material in a few days, but a hard copy (like a full book or journal issue) will take us a little longer.

Don't forget: If you are currently a registered Distance Learner with the Registrar's Office or designated as a Remote Researcher; you can have books from Bell Library’s Main Collection, and borrowed interlibrary loan materials, shipped directly to your home for free. We also supply a prepaid return label for your convenience.
