Monarch OneSearch

Visit the library homepage at odu.edu/library to find Monarch OneSearch. Monarch OneSearch searches for print books, electronic books, and media owned or licensed by Old Dominion University Libraries. It also searches some but not all of our databases. It's the best place to search to find out what books and ebooks the ODU Libraries own, and it can also be a good starting place to find articles.

E-Books

Below are a sample of eBook collections purchased by the ODU Libraries that are useful for ocean, earth, and atmospheric sciences. For additional information regarding eBooks, including open access eBooks, please see the E-Books at ODU Libraries library guide.

Print Books

In general, when a book order is made, ODU Libraries will purchase the electronic edition (if available) rather than print. However, not all books are available in eBook format, and ODU maintains a large number of print books as well.
