any questions not answered on the WSU Libraries website or would like to request
a book or journal on any subject related to Civil Engineering or Environmental
Engineering, please contact
Mark O'English. For questions concerning the Civil and Environmental
Engineering programs, please visit the
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
To Find a Book or Compilation:

- Find/borrow a book from nearby schools (generally takes three days).
- Borrow a book from anywhere in the entire world (generally takes a week).
- Request that we buy a book for the WSU library (please include WSU contact info!).
- Come by and browse the shelves! Here are the call numbers where you can find most Engineering topics on the top floor of the Owen Science and Engineering Library.
To Find an Article or Conference Presentation:
- If you know the title of whatever its printed in, look for the specific publication at WSU.
- If you don't know that, there are a large number of places to search for articles. WSU pays for some resources to help:
