Library Basics
Welcome to the library's Research Guide for Professor Fellouzis' "Animals in Public" course. Please use the resources and links provided to complete your research. If you have any questions, please ask!
Research Assistance
Library staff members are always willing and eager to help you with your research. You may schedule a meeting in advance, or simply stop by whenever the library is open. Feel free to email, call, or text the library with your questions as well. (See the left and right columns on this page for contact information and texting instructions.)
Off-Campus Access
If you are off-campus, you will need to enter your myDelVal credentials to login to a database. You will be prompted for this after you've clicked on the database. Contact us with any questions: library@delval.edu, or 215-709-8851.
Book/DVD Circulation
Most books may be checked out for three weeks. If no one is waiting for the titles, you may then renew them for another three weeks. There is no limit to the number of books you may check out. DVDs are available for three-day loans.

Interlibrary Loan
If a book or article you want is not available, use Interlibrary Loan (ILL). The Library can order books and articles from other libraries. This process takes few days but is completely free for DelVal students, faculty, and staff.
Before you submit an ILL, check Google Scholar or Summon to see if we have immediate access or if it is freely available online.
