Philosophy: Find Books/Dissertations

Start with CLIO to find books and journals in Columbia University library collections. (Use the Pegasus catalog to find books and journals in the Law Library collection and Educat for resources in the Teachers College Library.)

If the book is not in CLIO, then try Borrow Direct.

If not in Borrow Direct, request the title through Interlibrary Loan (you can check to see what other libraries have the title in  WorldCat, the largest online catalog in the world).

To find dissertations, start with Proquest Digital Dissertations. Also check Dissertations & theses. UK & Ireland and DART, Europe's E-theses portal.

Other essential resources include:

• Center for Research Libraries
  The Center for Research Libraries (CRL) makes primary and rarely-held research materials available to Columbia affiliates via interlibrary loan and document delivery.  CRL holdings are strong in newspapers, foreign dissertations, and international materials.
