How can I search for a specific book, DVD, audiobook, ebook or journal?

Search the library catalog to find a book (or a DVD, GSU thesis, or a particular journal or newspaper).

If you are looking for works by a specific author, use the advanced search feature. As shown in the screenshot below, the first drop-down menu will allow you to select Author/Creator. You can also use the advanced search to look for a specific title. 

In advanced search in the catalog, you can specify if your search term is the title or the author. 

Use the options under “Tweak My Results” to limit by format (audio, video, book, etc.) and select online only. 

If GSU does not own the book, you can request the book from another USG Library via GIL Express.

 

For more help, ask a librarian.
