"Where Do I Find Books?"


Librarian and Student with Book

You can search the online library catalog to find books and other material held by University System of Maryland and Affiliated Institutions (USMAI) campus library. See Using the Library Catalog for information about accessing and searching the online library catalog.

Please note that book delivery options are available whereby students who live in Maryland can have books delivered to a USMAI library near them for pickup and students who live in the continental US outside Maryland can have books sent to their home address via UPS.

UMUC students have access to thousands of e-books through NetLibrary. Most net Library titles are accessible through the online library catalog, but you can also access NetLibrary e-books through the UMUC Library Databases and E-Journals  page, which provides access to more than 125 databases. See the E-books guide for more information about how to access NetLibrary and other e-book titles.

DocumentExpress is also available to help students obtain books not owned by USM libraries.

Please see the Other Libraries section of the UMUC Libraries and More page to help locate a library near you.

If you have any problems using the online library catalog or net Library, please contact us via e-mail at library@umuc.edu, via telephone at 301-985-7209, or toll free at 800-888-UMUC (8682), press 1 and dial ext. 7209 or through web conferencing or chat with a Librarian from our Web page.
