New catalog search tool |
| |
Last month we promoted a new interface created for SearchTRLN which searched the library catalogs of Duke, NCSU, UNC-CH, and NCCU. This week, the Duke Libraries began offering an extension of that interface which has been customized for the Duke Libraries. The new search interface, now known as the Basic Catalog, provides advanced tools for keyword searching that both searches and displays enhanced tables of contents, summaries, and book cover images. The Classic Catalog remains the interface of choice for browsing by title, author, or subject or to quickly request books from another Duke library. |

The Color Purple: A New Story for a Familiar Reader |
| |
“As an adolescent, I understood The Color Purple to be a story about pain and, ultimately, triumph. But as an adult who has gone through her own process of healing and who is nearing mid-life (God willing), this becomes a new story.” Chanequa Walker-Barnes, Divinity ‘07 in an article written for the Duke University Libraries Magazine. |
