New Titles: Help
New Titles generates a list of resources (e.g., books,
web resources, journals, videos, and more) that have been recently added
to the library collection. You may view all resources added during a
specific time period or you may produce a more focused list by viewing
resources added to a specific library location (e.g., Geology Library)
or in a specific format (e.g., electronic resources).
When you search New Titles, you are not searching directly in the Library
catalog. Rather, you are searching a separate list of the newest materials
copied out of the catalog each morning. Choosing a particular title
will return you to the Library catalog itself. Any further searching
done from this point forward will be in the catalog. Using the browser's
<<Back>> button or returning to the New Titles screen will
bring you back out of the catalog.
The content of New Titles is refreshed prior to the start of each weekday
(Tuesday - Saturday).
Focusing Results
You may focus a search by using the following menus:
-
Location - view items from a specific library or from
all libraries on campus.
-
Period - view items added in the past two weeks or over
the previous one, two, or three months.
-
Search - search by title word (e.g. Texas),
author's name (e.g. Sagan), or start of a call number (e.g. QC).
Sorting Results
Sort the results in one of the following ways by choosing
from the "Sort by:" menu:

Print, Save, Email
You may print, save, or email any of
the New Titles results as you normally would in the Library Catalog.
