Finding Scholarly Books (Monographs)

Search using your keyword in the Minuteman Library Catalog

  • Searches more than 40 Metro West libraries
  • To see books available only at FSU, limit your results to Framingham State University
    • To access print books, note the call number, then locate the book in the shelves on the Lower Mezzanine or Ground level
    • Check them out at the Circulation Desk
  • You can also limit to book type (print, digital, audio, etc.)
  • Request books not held physically by FSU by creating a Minuteman account, then using your library card number
    • That number is found as a barcode sticker on the back of your student ID
    • If you do not have that barcode, please stop by the Circulation Desk, or call them at: (508) 626 - 4650 for more information
    • You can request that print books held by other Minuteman libraries be sent here to FSU
    • You will be notified when the book has arrived so that you can pick it up
  • Minuteman Digital (Overdrive) books and audiobooks can also be borrowed (downloaded) using your library card number
    • You will need to install/use an app on your portable device to use these
  • Run your keyword search in RamSearch
  • Limit your search to 'books' (print books on site) or 'ebooks' available instantly
    • To access print books, note the call number, then locate the book in the shelves on the Lower Mezzanine or Ground level
      • Check them out at the Circulation Desk
    • To access ebooks, follow the link through to the online full text
  • Note: Ram Search does not search all the Minuteman libraries; shows just books owned by FSU
    • To find books in the entire Minuteman library system, search our catalog

FSU's Interlibrary Loan (ILL) Service

  • FSU students can receive from other libraries, at no cost to themselves, books that are NOT available at FSU or available from the Minuteman Library Network
  • Interlibrary Loan (ILL) requests can be created, submitted, and managed through the ILL My Account page.
  • Note that physical books are shipped from other libraries via U.S. Mail; please allow time for items to arrive
  • Sometimes books borrowed via ILL can be renewed, but sometimes they can't - please plan and make use of them accordingly
