Seed Technology and Business Management Graduate Program

Library resources to support the Seed Technology and Business management graduate program.

Can't find that book?

If the Library doesn't own a book you need, it can be borrowed through Interlibrary Loan.

You can also email me with your purchase request and I will order it and make sure you are notified when it arrives. In the event I'm not able to purchase the book you request, I'll contact you.

The ISU Library does not routinely purchase textbooks. Textbook requests (except from faculty) will generally not be purchased. For textbooks, please try the ISU Bookstore, Amazon, or Chegg.

Introduction to Finding Books

Since the Seed Sciences and Business Management program is a distance education program, coming to Iowa State to retrieve books is not an option. There are still options for searching and retrieving books that are available through the ISU Library:

  1. Electronic Books - The library owns a large number of books that are available electronically. Electronic books can be accessed through Quick Search. Do a search and limit to books, then select the "available Online" link. There is no charge to access the e-books, but in many cases you will need your University ID and PIN Number to get access to the ebooks.
  2. You can search the ISU Library Catalog with the links on this page to find books that you need for your studies. They can be sent to you by the Library's Document Delivery service; we pay to ship them to you but you will be responsible for the costs of returning them. A more cost effective solution may be to find books in the ISU catalog that you want and check with local unviersity libraries at your location to see if they are available.
