Previous Next

In your SDLN window, you should now have a screen which says "Please select Library and Resource from the options below." To select a library, use the scroll bar menu of libraries at the top of the screen. To select a resource, click on the radio button beside the resource you wish to search.

****
In the SDLN window, select "Dakota State University" as the library, select "Library Catalog" as the resource, and then click on the "Go" button. This will take you to a screen called "Search SDLN Online Catalog." When you have done this, return here to the manual.
****

Anytime that you want to select a new library or a new resource, you may get to the "Select Library or Resource" screen by clicking on the "Change Library or Database" button at the bottom of the SDLN screen.

****
Switch to the SDLN window,
locate the "Change Library or Database" button (do not click on it),
and return here to the manual.
****

Okay, now you are ready to learn how to search the SDLN databases or resources.
