How do I find books, DVDs, or CDs?

  • Click on the Catalog link at the top of the library page.
  • Enter at least 2 keywords in the catalog.
  • If you get no results, check your spelling. If that’s correct, try searching under your most important keyword only.
  • Look at the results that come up, and find the best book or DVD that matches your topic.
  • Write down the call number, location, and notice the status of the book, DVD, or CD. Head to the reference desk in the library to learn how to physically locate the book.
  • Look at the call numbers of all the items listed. Are they all in the same range? If so, you might want to head directly to that shelf to browse through the items.
