How To Find Books and Non-Print Media

To find books and non-print media use the online catalog (CONSULS). Our online catalog has the library holdings for the four CSU libraries (Central Connecticut State University, Eastern Connecticut State University, Southern Connecticut State University and Western Connecticut State University) and the Connecticut State Library. You can search CONSULS by author, title, keyword or subject. Books can be requested from Central, Eastern and Western through our intralibrary loan system.
