Find Books in the Library Catalog
Searching Quest
- Quest is BC's online catalog, and the tool that you will use when you want to find books on various subjects.
- All the books in Quest are owned by at least one of the BC libraries.
- You will find Quest on the Social Work Library Research Help page and at the url: http://library.bc.edu/F
- If you are looking for books on a narrow topic, we recommend doing an Advanced Search as pointed out below.
- Select "keyword anywhere" as your search type.
- Combine keywords that describe your topic with the and operator.
- After typing in your keywords, hit enter or click on the search button.
A special note to our students at GSSW offsite locations: If you find books that interest you in the library catalog, the social work library staff will be happy to arrange to have the book(s) delivered to you at your own campus. Send us an e-mail at swlib@bc.edu to let us know what books you would like to borrow.
