When should I use Browse instead of Full Catalog?

Answer

Use Browse when you are starting your research, exploring a topic, or are not sure exactly what type of resource you need. It is a good place to begin if you want to search broadly across articles, books, guides, website content, and other library resources from the homepage.

Use Full Catalog when you have a more specific search in mind, want to look closely at the library’s collections, or need to narrow your results using filters such as date, material type, subject, availability, or location.

Both options are useful. Browse can help you discover possible directions, while Full Catalog can help you refine and target your search.
