Finding Books in the Digital Age


 

Viva el libro!  Books are just as valuable to researchers today as they were hundreds of years ago.  However, these days when you want to find a book, the first place you should turn is to your computer.  Every book in Pilgrim Library is included in our online catalog.  The Defiance Catalog allows you to search by title, author, keyword or subject to find out all you want to know about your book:  whether the library owns it, whether it's available or checked out, and where it's located on the shelves.  This Guide will show you how to use the catalog and other resources to find the book you want.
