Find Books at Stanford's Libraries

Stanford GSB Faculty and Staff can use Document Delivery to request items. We'll deliver them to you on campus whether they're in our collections or from other libraries.
GSB Alumni can learn more about how to borrow from the GSB Library.

Find Books at Stanford

Use SearchWorks to find books in Stanford's collections.

Search Tipsscreenshot of the search filters that display on the left of the search results in SearchWorks that allow you to filter by Access Type and Library.

  • To find print books, limit the results by Access Type and select At the Library.
  • For eBooks and audiobooks, limit the results by Access Type and select Online. Learn more about eBooks at Stanford.
  • To find GSB Library books, limit the Library to Business.
  • To search an entire phrase (e.g. "civil war" rather than just items that use the words "civil" and "war"), put the phrase in quotation marks. 

Request Books not at Stanford

If we don't have the book you're looking for, you can:

  • Use your public library for popular books and recreational reading. If you live on campus, you can get Palo Alto City Library cards.
  • Current GSB members can submit an InterLibrary Loan request and we'll try to borrow the book from another library on your behalf. Other users should contact their primary library for other options.
