Find Books and Other Sources in RaptorSearch: Home

本指南解释了什么是RaptorSearch,以及如何有效地搜索它以检索相关结果。

What is RaptorSearch?

RaptorSearch is not a database itself but is an integrated searching tool that finds items that are owned or licensed by the library (such as individual books, e-books, videos, etc.) and content in other databases subscribed to by MC Library. It allows you to search almost everything we have from a single search box. Results may include articles from journals and magazines, newspapers, books and e-books, or videos and other media. RaptorSearch is a good choice as a starting point for your research.
