FAQ(English)
What should I do if I know only part of the title of the material?
Select one from the displayed potential matches and press the [Search] button to start the search.
How do I search with an ISBN or ISSN (number)?
You can also perform a search from the advanced search screen by clicking the [Advanced Search] button on the [Bib Search] tab.
You can perform the search by filling in the ISBN/ISSN field.
ISBN (International Standard Book Number): This number identifies a book.
ISSN (International Standard Serial Number): This number identifies a serial.
What characters can I use with the [Bib Search] tab?
On the Japanese-language pages, you can use Kanji, Hiragana, Katakana, and alphanumeric characters. For alphanumeric characters, you can enter uppercase and lowercase characters. Single-byte and double-byte characters can both be entered.
Searches of Arabic script, Devanagari script, African languages, and Southeast Asian languages
Searches can use the original spelling (with characters as they appear in materials). Searches can also use keywords converted into Roman alphabet letters using the ALA-LC Romanization Tables of the U.S. Library of Congress. Some materials are registered in Roman alphabet letters only. An index is created for them. So if the search has no hits with the original spelling, convert the keywords into Roman alphabet letters, and perform the search again.
How do I search for materials when I don't remember the title?
If the search has an excessive number of hits, you can narrow it down with the [Classification] item from the [Refine Your Search] menu displayed on the left side of the search result list screen. In addition to using the classification item, you can also narrow down your search by material type, holding library, author, publication year, classification, subject, publisher, language, etc.
If the keyword search is unsuccessful, try using Search by Classification in the lower part of the [Bib Search] tab.
For example, suppose you are searching for statistics-related materials. From Search by Classification, you can narrow down the search to the materials in the following fields by selecting and performing the search with
"4: Natural science -> 41: Mathematics -> 417: Probabilities. Mathematical statistics."
What should I do if I want to use a combination of multiple search conditions (such as one including x or y)?
You can perform the following three searches by entering multiple conditions in a single search field or filling in multiple search fields (logical operation).
Entering multiple search values in one search field (enabled on the basic search screen and advanced search screen)
Logical AND search: Search for materials that simultaneously satisfy two or more search valuesEntry method: Connect all search values with " " (blank).Example: Search for materials containing both "Japan" and "America""Japan America"Logical OR search: Search for materials that satisfy any one of two or more search valuesEntry method: Connect all search values with "+" (plus sign).Example: Search for materials containing either "Japan" or "America""Japan+America"Logical NOT search: Search for materials that satisfy certain conditions and do not satisfy other corresponding conditionsEntry method: Connect all search values with "^" (caret).Example: Search for materials containing "Japan" but not "America""Japan^America"
Entering multiple search values in multiple search fields (enabled on the advanced search screen)
Logical AND search: Search for materials that simultaneously satisfy two or more search valuesEntry method: Enter search values in multiple fields, and select "AND" from the pull-down menu between the fields.Example: Search for materials containing "Japan" in the title and "Tokyo" in the author's nameTitle: Japan
