Finding a book
Dear Scarby, How do I search for a book? - Searching Student
Dear Searching,
Most searches start by using the everything search, which is that search bar on the UTSC Library homepage. If you know the title of the book, type in the title in quotes: "Alice in Wonderland"
If you're looking for a book on a subject, type in your subject. It might be modern dance or violence in 1990s movies.
If you get stuck, come to the Info Desk in the library and we'll be happy to help!
Yours Truly,
Scarby H. Hedgehog
