We’ve introduced some changes to LibrarySearch since the launch of our new library management system last summer<\/a>, here’s how to get the best out of LibrarySearch<\/a>\u00a0and your library account.<\/p>\n

Firstly, make sure you’re logged in to LibrarySearch<\/strong> – you’ll be able to access ‘My Library Account’ and also get access to all our subscribed electronic resources.<\/p>\n

What is SearchAll?<\/h3>\n

SearchAll@Cardiff<\/strong> is the default search option in LibrarySearch. SearchAll combines Library Collections<\/strong> (print & electronic books and journal titles) with Articles & More<\/strong> (full text articles from many of our electronic journals, but not all) into one combined set of results.<\/p>\n

To search other collections, e.g. NHS Wales Library Collections, click on the drop-down arrow for more options.<\/p>\n

Narrowing down your search results<\/h3>\n

If you want to narrow down your results use the Refine my results<\/strong> options on the left side of the results screen in the current version of LibrarySearch. Use the\u00a0Tweak my results<\/strong> on the right side of the results screen in the new version of LibrarySearch.\u00a0 There are lots of options to narrow down your results: e.g. use the Resource Type options to select Articles or Books, or narrow down your results by date or language.<\/p>\n

\"Refine<\/a>\"Screenshot<\/a><\/p>\n

You might have noticed\u00a0two Collection\/Library headings in the current version of LibrarySearch \u2013 the first is our physical library locations, the second is electronic collections. In the new version of LibrarySearch, these have been made clearer and are labelled Library and Collection, as seen in the example above.<\/p>\n

Looking for a specific book?<\/h3>\n

Search for your book using words from the title and author and then use the Refine my Results<\/strong> or Tweak my results <\/strong>options. Once you’ve selected Books in Refine\/Tweak my Results, you can also apply more selections such as Available in the Library, or books in a particular library or collection.<\/p>\n

Why do I get results that say Online access when there isn’t full text available?<\/h3>\n

Some results in your search may say \u2018Online access\u2019 but actually take you to a record from ORCA, our online repository. Publishers’ restrictions do not allow ORCA to link all results to the full text of the article or book cited, as shown in the example below:<\/p>\n

\"ORCA<\/a><\/p>\n

If you get a result from ORCA which doesn’t have full text (you’ll see the message \u2018Full text not available from this repository\u2019), and we don’t have a print copy, you can request the book or article via our Inter-Library Loan service. Please ask library staff for assistance if you’re not sure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We've introduced some changes to LibrarySearch since the launch of our new library management system last summer, here's how to get the best out of LibrarySearch\u00a0and your library account.
