Search Guru, a new way to access the UOW Library catalogue.

 

The book I want is out

Place a hold on a book that is on loan.

Placing a hold

The number of holds you can place is dependent on your borrower category.

 
 

I need some books on my topic

There is more than one way to search for books in the library - start with the Search page:

Use Search Guru to do a broad search to find out what the Library has on your topic. Your results will be ranked according to relevance and can be refined by selecting a tag, or limiting by date, location etc.

Use the UOW Library Catalogue to search for a specific author, title, call number or subject code (eg. ACCY101).

Choose 'more options' for advanced keyword searching on your topic or to set limits.

 

I have the call number from the catalogue, what do I do now?

Call numbers organise the books by subject and will help you to find them on the shelves.

Write down all parts of a call number. Spaces and slashes (/) separate the different parts of the call number.
