ARTH219: Art of the Italian Renaissance

How Can I Get Books Now?

The Morris Library stacks are closed, so you cannot browse to find books of interest. Instead, you can use the Browse the Shelf feature on the detailed record to review a scrolling list (with cover images) of books that are located to the right and to the left of the original book.

If you are living locally, you can use the Library's pickup service. Identify books in DELCAT and use the Get This For Me! link to request the books. The books will be retrieved from the stacks and checked out to you. Then you can come to Morris Library to pick up.

In addition, many print books are now available online through the HathiTrust ETAS service and can be read online.
