Search tips●Use the ISBN on the verso page, not back
cover. If the book has a 13-digit and a 10-digit ISBN, search for both. (Ex. 9780810883567 & 0810883562.
●Also, trying searching by title & author last name if no results are found, especially on older materials (Ex. Lifelong learning in public libraries Gilton).
●Use the advanced search if you want to.
