Find a Book

To find a book or e-book, you should use IUCAT, the IU Kokomo Library's online catalog. You can access IUCAT from the Library home page.

On the Library home page, you will see four image boxes. Move your mouse pointer over the first box that reads, "Find books, videos, and more." A yellow box will appear with two links that will take you to IUCAT. You can also use the "My Account (IUCAT) link in the Popular Links section of the page to get to IUCAT.

On the IUCAT home page, you can immediately begin searching for library materials using the search box. When you access IUCAT from the IU Kokomo Library home page, by default your search results will be limited to items held by IU Kokomo. You can expand your search to other IU Libraries by checking the "all IUCAT" button located beneath the search box. If you would like to request materials from other IU libraries or conduct an advanced search, we recommend you first log into IUCAT. Do so by clicking the My Account link above the search box.

Get a Library Card

To check out library materials, you must present your Indiana University borrower's card at the circulation desk. For students and full-time faculty, a University ID card also serves as a library card. To obtain a student ID, contact Student Activities, located in Room 210 in the Kelley Student Center

Adjunct faculty and Indiana residents may obtain a borrower's card with a valid Indiana driver's license or proof of residency.
