Starting Your Search
The process of starting your research with QuickSearch remains the same. From the Library's website, simply enter your search terms into the search box. You can apply the "Search for physical items only" filter to search the Physical Catalog or proceed to the new advanced search page for more detailed options.
Advanced Search Page
This is the new Advanced Search view. QuickSearch defaults to the Advanced view, but you can toggle between Basic and Advanced with the button below the search bar. You can access this page by clicking on Jump to Advanced Search from the QuickSearch box, or from the search results page by clicking on Advanced search or the QuickSearch logo. You can also start a new search by clicking New search under Research Tools in the left-hand navigation. All standard features of Advanced Search, including Boolean and field searching, are available.
Basic Search Page
This is the basic search view.
To start a basic search:
1. Enter your search terms in the search box.
2. Select any desired limiters from below the search box and click the Magnifying Glass to run your search.
3. View article details by clicking an article title or the View details link. When Full Text is available, select an option (Publisher Site, Online Full Text, PDF) from the Access now drop-down menu.
