Using the High Library Catalog:
First try a subject search. If this doesn't work, try a keyword search. Using AND, combine these search results with another word that describes your topic. When you get a good result, click on the links under Catalog Record to get more good results.
In the Library Catalog, under TYPE, select the kind of material for which you are searching, such as DVDs, CDs, or Scores. Hit SEARCH to see all of the DVDs that the library holds, or add search words to find DVDs on particular subjects.
Reference books are located on the main level of the library and must be used within the building. You can use the copier in the library to scan pages of reference books and email them to yourself as a PDF.
