  • Interested in requesting library books by mail? Check out the 'sourcing online and print resources' page
  • Searching in Discovery will also retrieve books and ebooks

Keyword Searching Tips

To find books about a particular topic, use a keyword search in the library catalogue. Refine and narrow your search by adding further keywords.

Some example search strategies:

"Values Education" AND Policy
(refugee OR asylum) AND children AND education AND school

Use quotation marks to search for phrases
Use the term 'OR' to combine synonyms or alternative terms
Place brackets around alternative terms to create order in your search

"educational counseling" AND ("peer pressure" OR bullying)
