Find & Borrow
Search the Libraries
Tripod is the online research portal and library catalog for the TriCollege Libraries. This is always your first stop. If Tripod does not have what you need proceed to EZ Borrow (for books) and Interlibrary Loan (for books not in EZ Borrow, articles, and anything else).
