Five Top Search Tips

The Search capabilities offer a very powerful way to quickly find the book(s) you are looking for.


To get the most from your search please bear the following points in mind:

1. Enter information in at least one field, in upper and/or lower case. Any fields left blank will be ignored.

2. The less you type in, the quicker the search, and the more results.Try to use the most distinctive word (s) to narrow your search rather than entering information in too many fields.

3. Only enter complete titles if you are certain of the exact spelling. To search for an exact phrase use double-quotes ("") at either end of the phrase.

4. Use short titles or an asterisk (*) to broaden your search.
e.g.Dost* will locate Dosteovsky, and gard* will find all books with gardening, gardens, gardeners in their title.

5 Use the search refiners to request the books added most recently, or in a certain price bracket.
