To search for books in
the Library Catalogue,
use the keyword option, which searches titles and subject headings.
Enter keywords such as algebra, modeling, calculus, etc. You
may want to use Boolean
Searching techniques to make your search more efficient. For
example:
Topic: differential
calculus equations
Strategy: differential
and calculus and equation*
Using and
will find every item in the catalogue that has all of the words
"differential" and "calculus" and "equation" in it. The asterisk
(*) acts like a wild card to find different endings. "Equation*"
will find "equations".
Videos
All videos are listed
in the library catalogue.
Search by keyword as follows. Example:
mathematics and videorecording
You can also limit your
search to videos, or other types of AV material, by choosing the
"Limit this
search" option at the top of the screen. Then select material type,
and choose the desired format. For
further information, contact Audio-Visual
Services.
