GIL-Find is the library catalog, a database of all of the books and journals on the library’s shelves, as well as digital resources such as eBooks, videos, and, eJournals owned by College of Coastal Georgia. 

Each student, faculty, and staff member has a GIL-Find account. Once you are in the GIL-Find catalog, sign in with your college credentials.

Books also may be checked out from other institutions within the University System of Georgia. To use this service, sign in to your GIL-Find account and switch College of Coastal Georgia to the University System of Georgia in the search box drop-down menu. USG books will be included in your search results.

Public users do not have borrowing privileges but may access books in Coastal's collection while in the library. Some books may be available at your public library.
