The library offers a range of helpful services. All of our appointments are free of charge and confidential.
How do I search an exact book or article title?
Use the main search box and enter the exact title in quotation marks.
If this doesn't retrieve the item, Select "Advanced Search", then input all of the information in the appropriate fields. You may also change "contains" to "is exact" to further narrow your search. If you know the resource type, select the appropriate type from the drop-down menu.
E.g. Title (is exact): "Gone with the wind", Resource Type: Books & eBooks

Choose "Journal Search" in top navigation banner, enter the journal title, or browse by subject area on the left side menu.
How do I search for works on a specific author?
