  ACM Digital Library
• AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics):
  AIAA Meeting Papers
• AIP (American Institute of Physics)
  AIP Scitation

If you need further assistance, please stop by the reference desk or ask us for help.

For listings of new books acquired by the Art, Architecture & Engineering Library over the past four weeks, please choose one of the following:

• Architecture and Urban Planning
• Art and Design
• Engineering

To create a new books listing based on your own criteria, please use the main library's New Books Form.

New books for the past week are placed on the library's New Books Shelf on the second floor.

The primary means of locating books is via Mirlyn, the University Library's online catalog.

You can always ask a reference librarian for assistance in finding what you need, so don't hesitate to contact someone if you would like help!

Books at the Art, Architecture & Engineering Library are located in the lower level (basement), 2nd floor and 3rd floor based on call number:

• 3rd floor: A - N
• 2nd floor: NA - PZ
• Basement: Q - Z

Location of materials at AAEL

Books that are in other locations will be identified as such in Mirlyn.

If a book is not shelved in its correct location, please fill out a search request.

Books may be checked out as per our borrowing policy. Note that some books (e.g. books in the reference collection) do not circulate and must be used in the library.

Books which are checked out by other patrons may be recalled.

Books at Other U-M Libraries

You can have books from other library locations (including Buhr) transfered to the Art, Architecture & Engineering Library using the Library to Library Delivery service; Click on the "Get This" button in Mirlyn (within item record).

(It generally can take up to one business day for books to be transfered via L2L. If you need a book sooner, we recommend that you go directly to the owning library. You can find information about a library by going to our list of libraries and departments and clicking on the appropriate library.)

Faculty may use the 7Fast document delivery service to have books delivered to their office.

Other delivery services are available.

Electronic Books

The University Library has selected books available in electronic format. Available books can be found and linked to via Mirlyn.

What to Do When We Don't Have a Book

While the University Library system has one of the largest research collections in the world, we don't have everything.

If we don't own a book, we will try to get a copy of the book from another library; we offer an Interlibrary Loan service to borrow materials from outside the UM. This service is available to UM-Ann Arbor students, faculty, and staff.

(If you wish to look on your own for other libraries that may have a particular book, you can use WorldCat.)

How to find journals and journal articles at the library.

When You Know the Article You are Looking For

When you have a citation/reference for an article in hand and want to find a copy of the article, you want to do what is called a 'known item search.'

The easiest way to do a known item search for an article is to use the Library's MGet It Citation Linker. The Citation Linker will give you a shortcut to print and electronic versions (if available) of articles, and to delivery options if the library doesn't own it.

MGet It Citation Linker isn't perfect, so if you can't locate your article with it, you should still try to look for the journal in Mirlyn. Using Mirlyn from an Engineering Perspective tells how to use MIRLYN to find journals in the library.

You may also wish to peruse the Online Journals list.

When You Don't Have a Specific Article in Mind

If you are looking for an article or articles on a particular subject or topic, you'll want to use what is known as a 'bibliographic database.' Use the guides below to help you identify which database(s) you should use. These resources will be particularly good at helping you to find 'peer reviewed,' 'professional,' or 'research' articles.

• Architecture
• Art & Design
• Engineering
• Urban & Regional Planning
