 Hello, today we are going to look at using a college library catalog. So the first thing I need to do is find my college libraries catalog. So I'm using the Bing search engine and I'm going to enter Wenatchee Valley College Library. So here is the WBC Library homepage for my local community college. There are all sorts of things here. I can get help finding articles or books. I can get help finding e-journals. I can access all sorts of databases full of different kinds of articles and information. Or I can look at our book catalog. Now today I just want to look at the WBC catalog. I'm going to make the screen a little bigger. So I'm going to go over here and click on that. I'm going to do a basic search here for a keyword. And perhaps today I'm looking at an issue like immigration. So I get 190 results. My keyword is highlighted. And I can start to see books that are available with a green check mark or not available with the red X. Now perhaps I'm going to look at this book, United States Immigration, a reference handbook. If I click on the title I can see a little bit more information such as how many pages it is, what kind of subjects are discussed in that book. So far I'm not seeing anything that jumps out. So I'm going to keep looking. I'm just scanning the titles to find things that maybe will work for a research paper or something I would be interested in reading. Here's a book about diversity in America. Part one is about thinking about diversity and part two is about managing diversity. This one looks interesting to me. So from here I could look at where the book is located. Here's the call number and this is on the main floor of the library. So if I were in the library doing this search I would just go over and grab the book. I could write this information down and take it with me to the library or I could request the item by entering my ID number and my last name. And this would have the library put it on hold for me. So the next time I went in it would be easy to find the book. Let's go back and do another kind of search. Here I can do an advanced search. And I could do the same topic, immigration, but maybe I just want current material from the last five years. So here we can see 22 results found. The first one being American immigration, a very short introduction. So again, I can click on the title to see more information about the book. And from here I can see where it is or I can make a request for the book. And that is a short introduction to how to use a college library catalog. Please feel free to ask your librarian for help. Thank you.
