How To Find...

Books and Ebooks through the Library

The best way to find short stories in the library collection is to use the advanced search function. This tool searches almost all of the resources available through the library, both physical books and ebooks. 

If you know the title:

Put the title of the work in the search bar, use quotation marks if most of the words in your title are fairly common. Set the results to only show books and the language of the story, then hit search. After you run your search, you can filter your results to show only resources available online or only physical items. 

If you know the author:

Put the author of the work in the search bar and set the search field to author/creator. Set the results to only show books and the language of the story, then hit search. After you run your search, you can filter your results to show only resources available online or only physical items. 

If you just need a collection of short stories:

Put the phrase short stories into the search bar. Set the results to only show books and the language of the story, then hit search. After you run your search, you can filter your results to show only resources available online or only physical items.
