There are several ways to Search the Online Catalog
AUTHOR Search is used when the name of the person who
wrote to book is known. Be sure to enter the author's name last
name first.
For Example: Angelou, Maya
TITLE Search is used when the title of the book is known.
SUBJECT Search is the most common search used by students.
Enter the subject being researched to find information on that subject.
WORDS in the title Search is like a keyword search. If
you have an idea what you are searching for, but are unsure to the
subject heading, you can use the WORDS in a title search to find
information.
CALL NUMBER Search is used to check the status of a book
that you already have the Call Number for.
For our example search we want to do a SUBJECT Search
on "Earthquakes". Select "S" on the keyboard for Subjects to continue.
