00:01 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on How to use OPAC.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn: how to find an item using Search
00:13 and find an item using Advance Search.
00:18 To record this tutorial, I am using

Ubuntu Linux OS 16.04 and

Koha version 16.05

00:32 To follow this tutorial, you should have knowledge of Library Science.
00:38 To practice this tutorial, You should have Koha installed on your system.
00:44 And, You should having working knowledge of Koha.
00:49 If not, please refer to the Koha Spoken Tutorial series on this website.
00:56 To begin with, I have added 2 more books on Microbiology.
01:02 One with author as Powar and Daginawala and another with author as Heritage.
01:12 This makes it a total of 3 books in my library.
01:17 Before going ahead, please add 2 more books of your choice into your library as has been explained in an earlier tutorial.
01:27 Open your Web Browser and type: http://127.0.1.1/8000
01:40 This URL is based on- the port number and domain name given at the time of installation.
01:48 Please type as per what you had mentioned.

Now, press Enter.

01:55 The homepage Welcome to Spoken Tutorial Library opens.
02:01 On the top left side click on Search.
02:06 In the Search field from the Library catalog, drop down, we can search by the following options:
02:16 Title, Author , Subject, ISBN , Series and Call number.
02:28 I will type Microbiology in the search field.
02:33 And, click on Go at the right side of the field.
02:38 All the Library items having the word Microbiology, are listed in the results.
02:45 The listed items with the search word, can be further sorted as per the user’s choice.
02:52 To do so, go to the right side of the list and click on the tab Relevance.
02:59 From the drop-down, I will select Author (A-Z).
03:05 You may choose any other relevant option as per your requirement.

03:19 Look below the title of the listed items. Here, we can see the availability of that particular item across all the libraries.
03:31 So, how can we improve our search for even better results?
03:36 We can do so by clicking on the ‘Refine Your Search' tab on the extreme left.
03:43 Then go to the various tabs under sections like: Availability, Authors, Item Types and Topics.
03:57 Now, let us see what to do in case the required material is not found with a general search.
04:06 On the Search Catalog page, click on the link Advanced Search.
04:12 A new page with the title Search for opens up.
04:18 Using the multiple drop-down options, we can refine our search for our required material.
04:26 From the first drop-down on the left side, select the appropriate option such as:

04:45 I will select Subject.
