Ebook Catalog Enhancements

The UI&U Library catalog software will be upgraded on Sunday, January 12th.  While most catalog features are the same, you'll notice some improvements:

Book Cover Images: these will now be included whenever available through Google Books

Improved Note: the old public note (An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click to view) has been updated and simplified (Click to Open Ebook).  The name of the database vendor has been added to each ebook record.
Text highlighted in ebook record.  Text says, "Click to open ebook: EBSCOhost"

Browse Search Features:  The browse search includes options for Begins With, Contains, and Ends With, and Alphabetical for when you don’t know the exact title wording or how to spell the author’s full name.
