Using the Catalogue

You should always start your search for books at the catalogue, even if you know the general area where the books you need are stored in the library. 

While browsing the shelves can be a useful way of finding books, the catalogue can tell you exactly where on the shelves the book you need is, which campus it is in and if it is available. By using the catalogue you can also find eBooks and the different areas to find books on your subject.
