About Library Search
Library Search is the Bentley Library's discovery service. You can use it to search almost everything the library has, including books and e-books, articles, and streaming media.
Sign-in
Start by signing-in for full access to search results, create favorites lists, make requests, and access your library account.
Start Searching
The default Basic Search retrieves results that contain all of your search terms. These may match keywords in titles, author names, subjects, table of contents, and other descriptions. Switch to Advanced Search if you want to search in specific fields (e.g. title, author, subject) or to limit results by material type and publication date. View the Library Search tips page for additional help.
What Am I Searching?
