Searching for a Book
- Use the library catalog to find book holdings in the Libraries.
- Keyword searching is the default but searches can be focused by selecting other options, including a specific author search or limiting by date or location.
Understanding the Results
After searching, look for these details:
1. Is this book in print or is it an e-book?
2. If the book is in print, is it AVAILABLE?
3. If the book is checked out or if you want staff to retrieve the book for you, click on "Pick It Up" and follow the steps to request the book.
4. Select the available pick-up location that is best for you.
