Searching the catalogue

To find books on a particular subject, use a keyword search on the library catalogue. For example:

films

law

Australia

You can narrow or broaden your search by using a variety of search strategies such as adding more words, using Truncation or Nesting - for example:

(film* or “motion pictures”) and (law or legislation) and Australia*


Browse through the records retrieved and look at the hyperlinked subject descriptions that come with each catalogue record, e.g.

Copyright – Motion Pictures – Australia

Motion Picture Industry – Law and Legislation -- Australia

You can then click on a subject description to find more material on the same subject.

Don't forget that you can have books sent from other branch libraries to your campus
