Searching for Games in the Library Catalog
1) Go to library.illinois.edu. Under the “Find Materials” tab, select “Library Catalog.”
2) In the search box, search for the phrase, “video games.” Once your results have loaded, you should see a results page that looks like the one below.
3) Once results have loaded, select “Undergraduate Library” under the ”Library” section on the left. This limits results solely to the Undergraduate Library.
4) To ensure that search results are limited to video games, select “Other” under “Resource Type” found on the left, above ”Library.”
5) If you are looking for games specific to a current operating system or game creator, select the subject to narrow specifically to X-Box, Sony Playstation, or Nintendo games. You can narrow your search to the specific creator/author, such as Electronic Arts or Nintendo.
