Keyword Searches in the Library Catalog and MOBIUS catalogs

  • Use sustainab* in searches; in most library databases, this will search for all words that begin with those letters.
  • Limit your search results to recent books by using the "Modify Search" button and look for the boxes for "Within."
  • Use OR to group synonyms together. Use AND or a new search line between groups of synonyms.

Example:

sustainab* OR ecolog* OR "climate change" OR "energy efficien*"

AND

housing OR construction OR building*
