Q. How do I search for items at Radford Public Library, Virginia Tech and other libraries worldwide?

There are two different ways to search for items at other libraries:

1. Search multiple libraries at once:

If you would like to search many of the world's libraries at once, you can do so through SuperSearch, the search box on the libraries' homepage. After searching for a title, author, or topic, on the left under "Group and Refine This Search" change the filter option “Held by Library” from "Radford University" to “Libraries Worldwide."

2. Search specific libraries:

You can also search most libraries directly: here are some recommendations. 

• Library of Congress

• Radford Public Library 

• Montgomery-Floyd Regional Public Libraries

• Virginia Tech University
  • To search for newspapers, magazines or journals at Virginia Tech, search their Journals Title Database

Students, staff, and faculty can use Interlibrary Loan to request items Radford University Libraries do not own. All Virginia residents have access to physical collections at public academic libraries including Virginia Tech and Radford University Libraries.
