- Upon
connection, you may then enter any
search term(s) (e.g. performer, director, word(s) in a movie
title,
etc.) in the Advanced Search form to search just within these video
records.
- To try an additional search within video
records, you may just type over any search terms you've entered.
- At any
time you may also "drill-down" to
records of
interest using the
clickable facet links on the left of results screens (e.g. limit to
"New Titles" , to videos in a
particular library, to videos on a particular subject or in a
particular language, etc.)
- You may use the browser BACK
button to go back one screen at a time and try something else.
- Be
aware that if you
ever click "Start Over" when using the Library

searching
the entire Library
Catalog. If you find that you are searching the entire catalog,
to START OVER searching just videos, select ADVANCED SEARCH,
select "Video (all formats)" from the Format drop-down, and then click
SEARCH (without entering any search term(s).
- The video search function used in the
Previous Library Catalog remains available.
- It will continue to include all new items.
In fact, the newest items will appear in that system first since new
video records in the Library Catalog are only added twice weekly at
this time.
