The Claire T. Carney Library has an excellent collection of books on engineering on the 5th floor.
You're welcome (and encouraged) to browse the books in person, but you also can plan ahead and see what our library and other libraries have from wherever you are. This page will help you with both approaches to finding books.
If there's a book you're interested in that we don't have, see the Interlibrary Loan tab for information on how to get it!
Use the search box below to run a quick search for books, or use the advanced search page to limit your material type to books prior to searching.
We have several e-book and some print titles in our collection for bioengineering. If you are searching the stacks on the fifth floor, best to check our Primo search above to find the call number before you go to the stacks since your book may have call numbers that are located in the R's (medicine), S's (agriculture), or T's (technology). The newest titles will be electronic. Check out some of our titles below.

UMass Dartmouth dissertations and thesis are now online in our digital archives. If you need one from 2016 or earlier, search the title or author in Primo for the print copy.
Here's a quick guide on how to read call numbers in our library (and most other academic libraries).
The first line is read in alphabetical order.
ex. PN would be before the PQ's but after the PM's.
Read the second line in numerical order.
ex. PN 6747 would be after PN 6746 and before PN 6747.1 or PN 6748.
The third line is tricky. Read the letter in alphabetical order then the number as a decimal.
ex. PN 6747 .S245 would come before PN 6747 .S5, because .5 in decimal is really .500!
Sometimes the fourth line will have another combination of letter and numbers, and you read it exactly like the other line.
ex. PN 6747 .S245 P4713 would come before PN 6747 .S245 P8, because .8 in decimal is really .800!
When you see a line near the bottom that looks like a year, it is a year! This goes in numerical order.
ex. If there was a book just like this except the date was 2003, it would go before the 2007 edition.
You could think of a call number like a detailed address in reverse: planet, country, state, city, street, street number. Each line helps you narrow down the book's exact location!
