The Bentley Library Search is a great place to get started as it allows you to search across multiple types of sources at the same time. On the left side of the results page you can Expand Your Results to include results outside of the Bentley Library's collections. Items that are not included in our collections (mainly books and articles) can be requested through Interlibrary Loan. Books might take up to two weeks to arrive while articles and book chapters usually arrive within 3 business days. Plan your research accordingly!
