Where is Library Search searching for content?

Answer

It defaults to searching billions of citations for articles, book chapters, and other materials, along with the millions of items in BGSU's University Libraries. If you want to narrow the search to a specific collection, you can select a collection from the dropdown menu in the search bar. For example, selecting "course reserves" will only pull the results of items that are on reserve for students in a particular class to use.
