Often when doing a
keyword search in
an online catalog, the list of titles that is displayed is quite large. Taking advantage of the
Limit/Sort option in the
Library Catalog will allow you to narrow those results to a
list that is more manageable.
To use this function, just execute a search in the Library Catalog. Once you get the results,
click on the
Limit/Sort Results button. You will then be able to limit your search to any of
the following options.
Options:
Language
Choose from 12 different languages
Material Type
Choose
Projected AV to find videos
Choose
Diss/Thesis to find dissertations
Choose
Serial to limit to journal or magazine titles
Other options are also available:
Words in the....
Narrow your results by combining your original search terms with a word
from a particular field (author, title, subject, publisher).
Where Item is Located
Choose from any of the Case libraries
Year of Publication
Choose a range of publication years
Clicking on
Sort Results by Year will display the resulting titles in chronological order
(most recent first).
After making your choices, simply click on the button labeled
"Limit/Sort items retrieved using above data." The resulting list should be
more useful to you.
