Q. Where can I find an encyclopedia?

To locate encyclopedias, start by searching the online catalog on the library’s website.

• To find print encyclopedias:

  1. Search for “encyclopedia” in the catalog.
  2. Under Held by Library, select Fr. Leonard Alvey Library to view items owned by Brescia.
  3. Under Format, choose Print Book.
  4. Some results may show the location as Reference—these are found on the main floor of the library.
• To find eBook encyclopedias:
  • Use the same search process, but select eBook under Format instead of Print Book.

• You can also explore encyclopedias through our Databases:

  • Scroll to the bottom of the library website and click on Databases.
  • Choose Encyclopedia as the database type to browse available options.

If you need help locating a specific title or navigating the catalog, just ask at the Circulation Desk—staff are always happy to assist.
