QuickSearch is Open to All
QuickSearch is a new library search engine that includes records for books, articles, conference proceedings, theses and dissertations, videos, music, images, manuscripts, standards, maps, and more. We have added all the records from the library catalog to QuickSearch. It indexes the full text of most of the e-books and the e-journals that we subscribe to, in addition to thousands of open access journals. A single search in QuickSearch can return records from all of these sources. It’s your first stop for exploring our collections and it’s open to all to search, including alumni. While not all full text will be available to alumni users, QuickSearch will help you identify print and electronic resources for your research project. More about QuickSearch…
