How to Find a Book

Looking for a book? This guide can help you find a book in our Library, at other academic libraries in Missouri, and help you place an Interlibrary Loan request.

Local MOBIUS Libraries

If you need a book quickly...

We know there are times when you need a book quickly and don't have time to wait for it to arrive through MOBIUS. Luckily, there are several nearby MOBIUS libraries that you can visit and use your UHSP ID to check out books. 

Books checked out from these libraries can be returned to the UHSP Library Services Desk.
