Kansas Library Catalog

The Kansas Library Catalog will help you find books in academic, public, and school libraries in Kansas.  You can use it to check to see if a nearby library owns a book that you want to retrieve yourself, or you can use the KLC to request books via interlibrary loan (ILL).

Below is a SUBJECT search for books about social media. 

The results list screen lists titles in relevancy order, along with other subject headings/authors/etc. that you can search.

If you'd like to order this book through interlibrary loan, click the "Request This Item" button at the top right corner and fill out and submit the request form. 

When your ILL book comes in, you'll get an e-mail letting you know, and you can pick it up in the library.  Typically, you can use ILL books for 3 to 5 weeks.

You can learn more about the book/s listed by clicking on the "View Details" button.

 

This is the bibiographic record for the book.  You can learn a lot about the book's content here, along with ordering via interlibrary loan.
