To limit your library search results to only materials held by Ohio University Libraries:

1. First, make sure you're signed into the library search website so that you have access to all Ohio University materials. See How do I login to the library catalog?
2. Option 1: Set the search scope to OHIO Library Catalog. This will limit the search to Ohio University Libraries materials.
   1. Go to "Library Search" in the top menu.
   2. Type your search term in the search box.
   3. Hover in the search box and a dropdown menu with a list of search scope options will appear.
   4. Select OHIO Library Catalog to limit it to physical and digital items belonging only to Ohio University Libraries (item #1 in the screenshot below)

3. Option 2: If you're already reviewing search results you can use the Library or Location filters on the left-hand side of the search results to limit the search to a particular library in the Ohio University Libraries system.
   1. For example, in the "Library" filter, select the Ohio University library you're wanting to search, e.g. "Vernon R. Alden Library".

4. If you want to limit your search to physical items held by a particular library, then in the "Availability" filter, select "Held by library". Note: if you add this filter without filtering by Library it will allow you to see all libraries that hold copies.
