Summon allows you to search different sources (online journals, databases, and the library catalog) to find a variety of materials with a single search. You can limit the search to just peer-reviewed journals or use the Advanced Search to search within a particular publication.
To find print and online books on a topic, search the MERLIN library catalog. Remember to put multiple word phrases in quotation marks (for example, "international trade") to search the words together in the catalog.
Find even more books using the MOBIUS catalog, which searches more than 60 libraries in the state of Missouri. You can go directly to the MOBIUS catalog to search, or if you are searching in MERLIN, you can simply switch to MOBIUS by clicking the "Search MOBIUS" button.
Use the "Request" link to get materials from other libraries. Books generally take between 2 and 5 business days to arrive when coming from another Missouri library. You will receive an email when they are available to check out.
