Online Reference Resources
There are many standard reference books available online now, so we have created a resource page to supplement our in-house reference collection. Check our Research page for these digital titles.

InterLibrary Loan (ILL)
If there is a book you are interested in that our library doesn’t have, please ask the Reference Librarian about getting the book for you from another library. We can get most books within a week to ten days. This service is made possible by the CT State Library and C-Car. Libraries won’t lend reference materials and usually won’t lend very new books, but other books, DVDs, books on CD and music CDs are available from most libraries. Ask us and we will see if we can get what you need.
