If SJSU doesn't have a book you're looking for in our collection, then CSU+ Resource Sharing might allow you to request it from any of the CSU campus libraries. Once you submit a request, the book should be delivered from its home institution in 2-5 days and you'll get an email when it's ready to pick up. This is a free service for SJSU students, faculty, and staff!
Once you've opened an item record in the catalog, if you see "Your search did not match any physical resource in the library" in the Availability section, then we don't have this book at SJSU. You can click the "Check holdings at other campuses - Show Libraries" link to see if another CSU campus has it available. Then all you have to do is hit "CSU+ Resource Sharing Request" and then "Request" again in the new window and the book will be on its way!
You can always view or manage your pending requests in your account.
