Search the Cheng Library online catalog for books and media. If you need journal articles, go to our Databases page.
Review sources, like the ones listed below, offer a snapshot of current research in a given area, and can be useful in helping you to focus your area of interest, or to choose a topic altogether!
Encyclopedia of Special EducationTo find books and media that our library owns, use the Books & Media tab on our homepage, or search for everything with the Search All option.
Start with one or two keywords, adding quotation marks ("") around concepts with more than one word: for example, "middle school" or "autism spectrum disorder"... quotes are not needed for single words, such as education or science.
Narrow your results using the limits on the right side of the results page. You may see a lot of non-book items, so be sure to limit the Resource Type category to Books, if that's what you're looking for.
When you've found a book (or ebook!) that looks interesting, click the title to learn more about it, or (if it's Available), write down the location and call number and head to the shelves to get it!
If you see 'Available Online', the book or media is available online!
