What is Summon?

Answer

Summon is the Farley Library's discovery service, meaning it is the tool used to find library materials. Unlike using an individual database, Summon searches all of Farley Library's databases, journals, books and other materials at the same time. If you are not sure where to begin when conducting your research, Summon, or the "Search Everything" tab, is the best place to start.

The Summon search box is located on the Farley Library homepage. You can type your search into the search bar, or you can click "Advanced Search" to access more options to refine your results.

If you wish to only search books (physical and eBooks), you can select the "Books" tab to search the Classic Catalog directly.
