Using Enquiry is simple.

Here are some Enquiry tips to help you use the online catalogue

To locate a book by TITLE enquiry,

  • You need only type in the first few words of the title.
  • You do not need to include "a" or "the " at the beginning of titlesÐ
  • eg For the title "The greatest treasure of Charlemagne the King" enquire as "greatest treasure"

You can also locate a book by KEYWORD.

  • It's important to choose a unique or unusual keyword if possible.

eg For the title "The greatest treasure of Charlemagne the King" enquire on the unusual KEYWORD "Charlemagne"


Remember always to type in the author's LAST NAME
