Tips
Each
online catalog has three different search screens. Select a search
screen based on your familiarity with the CSRM Library online catalogs
and database searching techniques.
Basic Search Screen
This search screen provides essential search prompts. Each prompt
corresponds to a specific field in the catalog record. A single
word, phrase or term (controlled vocabulary) can be typed at each
prompt. Some search prompts search more than one field.
Basic Search Screen with Examples
Use this screen if you are new to searching the CSRM Library online
catalogs. This search screen provides the same search prompts as
the Basic Search Screen as well as suggestions for maximizing the
number of records retrieved.
Expanded Search Screen
This search screen contains additional search prompts. Click on
the Word Wheel button to see the terms (controlled vocabulary) used
in selected fields. Use these terms to configure queries in any
of the search screens.
For assistance in configuring an effective search, click on
Search results are displayed in a default report form which cannot
be altered by the user. A search may yield multiple records; however,
a maximum of 25 records will be displayed at one time.

Catalogs Home Page" to return to the complete list of online catalogs.
