Online Catalog Tutorials - Understanding Results


The LSU Libraries' online catalog may be searched via the "Basic Search" box on the Libraries Home Page, or by going to the Online Catalog Advanced Search Screen. There are two tutorials that cover how to search the online catalog, Basic Searching and Advanced Searching. Help in understanding how to build effective search statements may be found in the Building Search Statements Tutorial.

This is great, but once you know how to search for materials, what do you do with your results? This tutorial will look closely at the results screens returned once searches have been submitted to the online catalog. You get a lot of information, and have a number of different options for what to do with your results. Working through this tutorial should help you to better understand and use the results you searched so hard for!
