OneSearch Library Catalog Tutorial

This Fall 2022 Semester, the library is offering a new online OneSearch Library Catalog Tutorial.  The tutorial is available in our library catalog, in many of our library research guides, and on our library website.

Upon completion of the OneSearch Library Catalog Tutorial, library patrons should be able to:

1. Find the OneSearch online library catalog.

2. Search for and locate books and e-books, videos, articles, digital media, and more in the library's collection.

3. Request items from other LACCD libraries.

At the end of the tutorial, there is a short online quiz, which provides users feedback.

Find books, articles, and more. OneSearch is now available in Spanish!

Advanced Search | Research Databases

Below are some tips and reminders when you are searching in our databases:

• Use quotations around your search terms to search for your exact phrase(s).
• Use AND, OR, or NOT to connect your search terms.
• Narrow by date range and content type (scholarly articles, newspaper articles, magazine articles, reports, etc.)
• Use truncation to find variations of words. For example, “alcohol*” will search for and locate “alcohol”, “alcoholics”, and “alcoholism”.
