To search for books in the WTC Library from the Library Computer Center:

1. Click on the Spectrum icon on the computer desktop ; this will take you to the Sagebrush Spectrum 5 catalog.
2. The search window opens; type search terms into the search space provided.

In Easy Mode, which is the default, you may search using:

1. Keywords - Useful for general searches; covers author, title, subjects, all in the same search.
2. Titles - Works best if you know an exact title.
3. Authors - When you know the exact author. Remember, last name, then comma, then first name.
4. Subjects - Library of Congress subject headings, good for narrowing down a search such as all books about an author instead of all books by an author.

1. Keywords
2. Titles
3. Authors
4. Subjects
