Guides for Using Online Catalogs and Finding Books

These guides will help you use the UIUC Online Catalog, the I-share Online Catalog and teach you how to search for books.

 

Tips for using the online catalog

The UIUC online catalog is a simple way for students and faculty to search through the collection for a variety of items.

 

I-Share tutorial movies

The I-share online catalog allows patrons to find items outside of UIUC and then request these items be sent to them.  The List of I-Share libraries shows how many libraries UIUC is connected to, this system creates an impressive amount of information access to UIUC students and faculty.  The movies provide easy instruction on how to utilize the online catalog.
