→ Need a specific book for that paper you're writing?
→ Did your teacher say, "You can find this book at the campus library."?
→ Or maybe you'd like more information on a specific subject for inspiration...

Included will be a demonstration of what information is contained in an item record, use of limiters to narrow down search results for quantity and/or assignment requirement, and other useful functions.
