APPsearch, a New Tool to Discover the Library's Collections

The library has just launched APPsearch [1], a new tool to search for books, journal and magazine articles, movies and much more -- all in one place!

APPsearch [1] is a powerful, information-rich, highly intuitive, easy-to-use search tool. Starting with one simple search box, you can find all the library has to offer. Great, detailed information is now just a click away. APPsearch is loaded with useful features:

  • Google-like relevance ranking ensures that the best results rise to the top of your search
  • Cool Web 2.0 features-like tag clouds- help you focus your search by format, collection, subject
  • headings and lots of other ways
  • “Did you Mean?” feature eliminates confusion and corrects common spelling mistakes
  • Quick links to other Web-based resources

Take APPsearch [1] for a test drive and give us your feedback [2]!
