Search for books

Start at "Books and More" OR go to http://gilfind.uga.edu/

GIL-Find has many special features to help you find, save, cite and preview your search information.

Narrow results by library, format and location
Save books to a Favorites list (pin symbol)
Send results to a citation manager (EndNote, RefWorks, Mendeley)
If you don't use a citation manager, get a rough citation to cut and paste instead. (MLA, APA)

Some of these features are only available when you are logged into your library account. You will need your UGA MyID information to log in.
