Beginning your search on the library webpage for materials to use

When you are ready to start your research, go to the EFSC Library homepage to do so:

Once you're on the homepage, there are many resources to help you.

You can look for a Book by first clicking on the "Click to Search the Library" button:

Now you can enter search term(s) on the search lines and choose "Books" from the "Material Types" dropdown on the right side.

Once you have a list of results, you can limit for Print Books ("Available on Shelf") or for eBooks ("Available Online") by choosing one of those limiters on the left side:

You can choose to search for just Articles, too. 

From the Library Catalog "Advanced Search" page, you can limit to Articles in two places:
