Research Process - info on research process UI slant; use of various online and library sources Google's Book Search at http://books.google.com/books   allows you to search many books (although not all presses contribute).  You will not be able to print out the pages of the books that you can look at on-screen.  However, it can give you a good idea if a book covers  what you are looking for.  You can then get the book from the library or request it through Interlibrary Loan.
