If you wanted to find all of our materials that were in French, you can do that in the advanced search mode by using “*” (with the quotation marks around the asterisk) and then selecting “French” from the “Language” limiters.
Once you have that search run, you can further refine it by additional terms or using any of the limiters on the side. Here are some ways you can drill down further:
- Print books: Select “Currently on Shelf” in the “Limit To” options
- Ebooks: Select “Full Text Online” in “Limit To” and “Books” in “Resource Type”
- Works by a specific author: Select the “Author” field and enter the author’s last name. Example: all works in French by Ousmane Sembène, which returns both his works of fiction and the films he directed.
