Finding Fiction Series on the catalogue
Jacinta
You would have seen in the email Anne sent that catalogue records are being downloaded directly from Libraries Australia now, with no changes. This changes how we search for fiction series.
I just thought I'd put the main points here, and the location of Anne's full explanation, so that when you are looking you can search for 'series' and find what you need quickly.
Use "NoveList" from our online databases check series volumes Another excellent online tool is "Fantastic fiction".
Author browse.
Nora Robert’s trilogy with each volume listed as per old practice. New series entries will not appear in Author browse.
Title browse.
Both new and old series entries are retrieved. New format does not include volume.
Keyword
Use general keyword to retrieve both old and new format series.
Series browse.
The new format is retrieved when searching by author, but not by title.
