Catalog Tip: Getting Full Details about an Item

If you’ve been using our new online catalog, you’ve seen how different it is from our previous catalog. Previously, clicking an item’s title showed all its details. That information is available in the new system, but it requires a couple of extra clicks to access.

For the purposes of this post, we’ll assume you’ve searched and clicked an item to view its details page. Our example is a music CD, since the track list needs extra clicks to access.

In the Edition Information section, click the dropdown arrow (boxed in red above). This reveals some basic information about the title, but not all of it.

Click on the details button, boxed in red above. A side panel will slide in from the right, revealing additional information about this title. Scroll down to view it all, including the track list in the Table of Contents section.

That’s all there is to it!
