Click on the Search Box on the left side of the screen.
Type a word or two that represents what your are looking for. For instance, if you're looking for books on dogs, type the word "dog."
Immediately below the typing box is a list of catagories to search. Clicking the small down arrow on the right hand side of the catagory will show you a list of all possible catagories. To choose a catagory, click it once. If you don't know what catagory to use, choose "keyword" - it will cover everything.
Once you have typed a word and chosen your catagory, click the "Search Now!" button to see the results.
Tips for Better Searching
To see more information on a particular book or item, click on the Title of the book.
Clicking the Author or Call number will create a new search. For instance, if you want to see if an author of a particular title has any other books available, clicking the "Author" hyperlink will display all titles by that author.
If there are many results, they will not all be displayed at once. Instead, they will be displayed in "pages". At the top and bottom of the results screen will be a set of hyperlinks representing several pages of results. Clicking these links will switch to a different "page" of results.
Entering more than one keyword implies a boolean "AND" (you don't have to type it, Webstacks assumes it). You may enter boolean operators in the simple search. For example, "water OR canada" is a valid expression.
