All databases can be accessed off-campus. You will be prompted to enter your Stevenson log-in information. If you have any difficulty, please contact the library.
When looking for a book or eBook, use OneSearch on the library's homepage.
Some tips & tricks for searching are:
Simple Search results contain all the words used. These may match words in a title, author names, subjects, abstract, or other fields.
Advanced Search pre-limits a search to specific fields, material types, publication dates, and other qualifiers.
The asterisk (*) can be used to truncate a word. [octop* = octopuses, octopi, octopods, octopodes]
Enclosing a search in quotes (" ") returns results that are an exact match ["happy birthday"].
Try using Boolean Search - AND, OR, and NOT will help narrow your results even further.
"honey bee communication" – the library catalog treats the entire query as an exact phrase.
'"Honey bee" AND communication' will garner results with the phrase "honey bee" and the word communication, but not as a phrase.
'"Honey bee" OR communication' will show all results with the phrase "honey bee," all results with the word 'communication,' and all results with both.
'Administrator NOT manager' retrieves all items which have the word 'administrator', but will filter/remove results containing the term 'manager'.
Note: OneSearch will return both books and eBooks in your results.
If you're not sure what book you want, search by Keyword in OneSearch.
On the results page, you'll find books, eBooks, academic journals, and journal articles. You can use the toolbar on the left side of the page to narrow down your results by source types, subject terms, publication dates, language, and more.
