library catalog vs. high school catalog

Looking up books in the library catalog and looking up books in a high school library are very different. The library catalog has many more books than a high school would have so it makes it more complicated when finding a book on a shelf. In high school we did not have electronic books only printed texts. When searching for a book in the UWG catalog and searching for a book in high school will bring up completly different results. Here a UWG if you type in a word hundreds of books can match your search so it is important to do advance searchs in order to find a specific. In high schools if you know what book you are looking for in the library and you type in a keyword that book will most likely come up at the top of your search. I liked using GIL-FIND in class on Monday. I found it extremely helpful to find a specific book on a certain topic. When using many key words to find a book it will only bring up books with those descriptions. You can use the words AND or OR to help define a search even more.
