In-depth ways to search the catalog

Start Date

How to search starting with the entire catalog: 

Step 1: Type [a TO z] into the search box and click "Search" (every single item in our catalog will show up after searching for this so it might take some time to load!)
 

Step 2: Use the filters on the left side of the page to narrow down what you want to find.  For example, click Book if you only want to find physical books.  If you wanted New Titles, there is the option to narrow down the list by This Week, Last Two Weeks, etc.
 

PAC filters

 

Note: The list of items will continue to narrow down in the order of what filters you choose
 

My initial [a TO z] search went from 267,030 items to 130 after I selected Book and books that have been added This Week.
 

Step 3: To restart or change your search, click "Remove" next to the filters you've already selected
