WorldCat
is the book database you will be using for the books we don’t have. Remember,
you’ll see a Lyon College icon 
Lyon
College beside titles in WorldCat if our library owns it. WorldCat
can’t tell you if it is checked out or not, or what the call number is. You
will have to search for it in the Mabee Simpson Library Catalog to find that
out. If our library doesn’t own the book, follow the links that say “Borrow
this from another library,” or “interlibrary loan,” or “see more details for
locating this item,” and order it from the interlibrary loan department. More
