STEP TWO
Search for the books that are available in your state by clicking on the titles below. Enter your zip code to see if the book is available at your local library. If a book is not available through your library, you can see if the nearest library to you will allow you to check out the book through inter-library loan. Every library's policy is different so it is best to check with your local librarian. Many of the books on the list are textbooks held in university libraries only. This is where university students and professors can really help with this project by correcting the books those of us not affiliated with a college or university have access to. Once you have located the books, insert the bookmark on the page that mentions Dr. Sims. The page numbers are listed next to each title so you don’t have to search through each book.
