WorldCat Local will primarily find books, journal articles, and quality websites. To limit your search to books after you have searched the catalogue, click books on the left-hand side of the screen.
Entering keywords into the search box is a good way to begin your search. Keyword searches will find words in the title, subject heading, contents notes, author, and other information about the book. You may also search by a specific author, title, or subject. This can be done through the advanced search option in WorldCat Local. These searches can also be done through the regular search box using specific symbols in front of your keyword search. Here is a list of the most commonly used symbols:
ISBN (bn:)
Title (ti:)
Author (au:)
Publisher (pb:)
Series (se:)
Subject (su:)
