Search Tips
Results are only given for items matching all the search terms you enter. It is best to start with a broad search.
Enter details into only one field at first if this returns too many results add details to other fields if you have them.
If you cannot find the book you are looking for try using the browse menu to find similar titles.

ISBNS should be entered without hyphens '-' or spaces e.g. 0521011485.
It is not necessary to enter any other details as an ISBN only refers to one specific book.

Author  If you are unsure of the spelling of an authors name, uncheck the "Whole Word" box and enter a few letters that you are sure of, this will return any author names containing these letters.
Try searching for author's by their last name only e.g. smith, if you get too many results try adding the initial of their first name e.g. smith j if this does not return any results try first and last name e.g. john smith.

Titles  Try searching with a few key words from the title you are looking for, if you get too many results add more words from the title, if you only get a few results try taking some words out of your search.
