What happens if I only know some of
the DVD details?
Just type in the details you know separated
by the word "AND". For instance if you were looking for the CD,
Black Sabbath's Masters from the vaults, you could type Sabbath AND
Vaults.

How do I find the item on the
shelves?
Films and music CDs are
kept separately from the book stock. But documentaries or
instructional DVDs and CDs tend to be shelved with the book stock
under the shelfmark number. You will need to check the
web catalogue record to see their location.
