Use the Library Catalog to search for electronic books by subject, keyword, author, or title.
Finding Books on Your Topic
Once you have chosen a topic and done your background research you will be ready to conduct more comprehensive research using books.
Use the Library Catalog to find books. Books can provide a broad overview of a topic or in-depth information. You can search for books by author, title, subject, or keyword.
Use the keyword that most closely describes your topic to search the library catalog. Use the limiters in the left column to narrow your results. The following terms are just a few examples of keywords:
Refine the search results by Availability and select Available Online
Further refine the results by Resource Type and select Books.
If you placed a check mark in the box next to each option, be sure to click on the Apply Filters button.
Here are a few examples of Ebooks available electronically which can be found when searching the catalog. Ebooks require a login for off-campus use. Enter your Cerritos College login when prompted. For more login information see the Database Login page.
