The Search

• When it comes to looking for specific books you
  use this database sort of the way you would our
  Destiny Catalog. You can type in an authors name
  or keyword, or title of the book. It is very easy
  to use and also very helpful.
• Unlike Destiny, you can narrow your search even
  more by searching a plot or series.

Helpful features Continued

• This database is not a fixed database. It is
  always adding new books to their collection for
  your search. Not every book gets in though. They
  review books and if they are good enough for
  their database they are put on for you to
  discover and enjoy.
• Another helpful feature is the tour of this
  database. If you are having trouble finding what
  you need you can take a tour of the site to
  better understand how to use it.
