OPAC GUIDE

LibraryNet OPAC consist of 3 types of searches. They are the Basic Search, Keyword Search and Browse Search.


SEARCHING RESOURCES OF A SPECIFIC LIBRARY

To search for all resources catalogued within a specific library, you only need to select a library name in the “You are now searching in” field at the top. To search for resources available in all the participating libraries, select “All libraries”.


BASIC SEARCH

Basic searches allows you to search based on specific criteria like the title, author or subject names or the combinations of a few of them.

You can extend your search to include other fields like ISBN numbers, ISSN numbers, publisher names and many more by clicking on the “More search options »”.


KEYWORD SEARCH

Keyword searches is where you can just enter a single phrase or word to search for within all the catalogues. Just as the basic search, you can choose to enter more search criterias in this section.


BROWSE SEARCH

Browse search option enables you to search for either author name, subject or publisher name and then list out all the author names, subjects or publisher names that have your search criteria within them. From there you can choose the exact one you meant from your search and followed by viewing all the library resources that is related to the item you browse on – all resources related to the author name, subject or publisher names.


SEARCH RESULTS LISTING

The search result list will only be displayed if there is any resources matching your search word or phrase. The number of records listed on the list is depending on the “Hits per page” value that you have selected before starting your search. You may order/sort your search results according to author names, title or publish years before you start your search through the “Sort by” selection.

The icons on the right side of each search results indicate the material type and the special collection they are in if any.


RESOURCE DETAILS

The resource details will only be viewable after you have selected a title from the search result list as mentioned above. There are four parts to the details view where you can get more information regarding the resource. They are Brief record, Full record, Full Marc and Item (as in items information).


BRIEF RECORD

Brief record consist of basic informations that is normally understandable by the patrons or users. There are links on the author names, subjects and others. By clicking on them, you will get to view a listing of all resources related to the word/link that you have clicked.


FULL RECORD

Just like in the Brief Record above, you can see details of the resource that you have selected. The additional fields available in this view are those that are more complicated and may not be meaningful to you unless to those who are well versed with library operation knowledge.


FULL MARC

 

The Full Marc are the display of all the information on the resource according to the MARC 21 standard's categorisation of the records.


ITEM

Item view list all the available resources with the same title and information as selected in all the participating libraries, listing the CALL number and the number of copies. If you click further on a specific library name, it will display the status of the resources within the library whether they are available or not.


RESERVATION

Within the Items view for a specific library, you can also perform reservations. Reservation is only available if all the resources in that specific library is not available and only if you are a member of the specific library.

If a resource is not available in the library, the "reserve" link will be available for you to click. If you are not signed in, the OPAC system will ask you to do so so that it will know you are the one who is reserving this resource.

After signing in, you have to read the reservation information which includes reservation queue and confirm whether you wish to wait for this resource.
