German - Finding Books

FRANCIS, the Williams College Libraries' online catalog contains all the books and other materials that the Library purchase. Use it to search for a specific author or title or to compile a bibliography on a specific topic. Williams uses Library of Congress Subject Headings. To find books on a particular subject, use the Keyword search option. Then look at the subjects under which it has been cataloged.

WorldCat is the combined catalogs of most of the libraries in the United States, as well as several non-US libraries. Most books located in WorldCat can be requested through the NExpress (for fasted delivery) or through InterLibrary Loan.

Buchhandel.de is the online equivalent of Verzeichnis lieferbarer Bücher (German Books in Print) as is the best source for German language books, though some may not be available for sale in the United States.
