Dear students,
For most of you, this will be the first course at WOU. It

Take care and happy studying.

69
What is a library catalogue?
• a search & discovery tool that helps you locate
the Library’s online & print collections in a single

70
71
Using Mycatalogue to locate libarary materials
72
Remember that finding the right materials will be easy once

Below a sample of a WOU library book record after a
search.

75
The first search we will look at is Basic
search. An example of Basic search for the
author ‘Ronald W. Fry.’

77
The following is the results for the above search.

The library uses the Library of
Congress Classification Scheme to
assign call number to all books and
other library materials. Except for

numbers used to identify the subject matter of a
particular item.

Call Number: QA184.2.P821 2006
92
• Books are shelved alphabetically according to the
letter on the first line
93
The Library of Congress (LC) classification
system organises books and other
materials by subject, to make it easier for
you to browse the shelves for materials on
a specific topic.

(revised) 2005 defines a blog as a personal
website on which an individual records
opinion, links to other sites, etc.
106
Now go back to the topic you chose earlier.

or blogs) discussed above and locate info on the
topic “Open Distance Education.” Write down the
tools you used in the left-handed column and the
info in the right-hand column. Once you have
