Hello and welcome to the basic search
tutorial. To search for materials in the
Cedarholm library collection begin by
going to MyMaranatha. On the left hand
side under Quick Links, you will choose
the library tab. Once you have reached
the HOLMES search page, type in your
search terms.
Let's start by looking up information
about C. S. Lewis.
We now have quite a few
hits to choose from. If you would like to
refine your search, you can do so using
the options on the left sidebar.
As you can see, the library has many
resources such as books, articles, and
eBooks. Let's look at choice number one
first, which is a book.
Under the title
you can find information such as the
location of the book,
its call number,
and whether or not it's available for
circulation.
The next choice is a journal article.
Journal articles can be printed or cited
using the toolbar on the right.
Third on our list in an e-book.
On the left side of your screen
you will see the table of contents.
This allows you to select any chapter in
the book that you would like to read.
If you are finished with this resource
and would like to search for other topics,
just click on new search
in the top left corner of the page.
If you did not find what you were looking for
in the HOLMES database, there are other databases as
well as many helpful links under the
search bar.
Some of these include Galaxie Theological
Journals and access to renewing
materials online and requesting
interlibrary loan books.
This concludes our basic search tutorial.
If you have any questions, feel free to
contact the library.
