There are two search options available by selecting one of the following tabs on the library web page:

Tūhuratanga search – this is a search across the catalogue, journal databases and more. Search by keywords, author, or select from the drop down box to search by item title.

Library Catalogue search – for all items held in the Carey library. Enter search term(s) in the search box. This may be word(s) in the title, author, subject, any other keyword(s), or a combination of these.
