Accessing Educational and Psychological Tests

NOTE: Tests do not normally circulate outside of the Library due to the cost of replacement. They are like Reserve Items.  You must sign out each test before using it.

Select the Ely Library QuickSearch

If you know the name of the test you seek:

    • Select the Advance SEARCH link located under the search box
    • Change the first search box to Subject
    • Type in ERC Tests
    • Change the next box to Keyword.  Enter part of your test title or author in the search box

 If you only need a list of tests in the collection:

    •   In the main search box, type in SU:ERC Tests.  Click on "Go"
    • Change the results list by selecting, on the right of your screen, Sort by:Title (A to Z):

From your search results, select the test you need and print the record out with call number.  Enter the ERC area and ask for help at the service desk to retrieve the test. This is not a self-service collection!  Make sure you request all the parts you need to work with.

You will be asked to sign out the test to use in the Library, just as you would any Reserve material.  Please return tests to the ERC Service desk before leaving the library and make sure all parts are included.
