Searching
You can search our Media and Print Catalogs via one or more of the search criteria listed below. Using more than one criteria will narrow your search.

1. Text/Keywords: Enter any words or phrase that you would like to search for in the catalog. This search criteria is matched against the Catalog Number, Title, Annotation, Topic, and Series Title for the Media Catalog, and is matched against the Catalog Number, Title, Subtitle, Author, Publisher, and Subject for the Print Catalog. The text you enter is considered to be one search string. For example, "youth ministry" (without the quotes) will be searched for as one phrase. Text or keyword search is not case sensitive.
2. Media Type (applies to Media Catalog only): The two letters at the beginning of the Catalog Number signify the type of media as follows:
   • CD - Music CD
