You can find partial lists of picture books by topic and campus on the Early Childhood Education subject guide. You will see tabs for children's picture books at Newnham Library and King Library.

How do I search for picture books using the library website?

You can do a general search for picture books through the Library Search. To do that:

  1. Enter the topic you are searching into the search box. e.g. animalsThe library search box with the word animals typed into it
  2. Change the drop down menu on the right from Everything to Picture Books and press enter.
    The search box with animals typed into it and picture books selected from the right drop down menu

     
  3. The results list will show you items in our picture book collections at King, Newnham and Seneca@York campuses. If you prefer, you can specify which campus items you'd like to see using the 'Library Location' limit on the left side of the page.

Would you rather browse our shelves? Most of our picture books are shelved separately from our main collection and begin with the call number PZ. Can't find them? Just ask a friendly face at the library service desk.
