The Search screen is the first tab the user encounters once inside the SCSB application. This is not restricted and is available to all users of the SCSB system. The Search tab allows users to search for records using various criteria. It also allows users to export the search results and request the titles (with appropriate permissions). Clicking on the hyperlinked title allows the user to view the MARC format of the bibliographic record.

The Show Facets button drops down to reveal a plethora of checkboxes through which the user can further narrow down the search criteria by choosing specific owning institution, collection group designation, availability, use restriction and material type. The checkboxes are classified as bib and item facets. Owning institution and Material Type are at the bibliographic level and hence classified as bib facets. Collection Group Designation, Availability status and Use Restriction can vary between items from the same bib and hence classified as item facets. A minimum of one bib facet and one item facet needs to be selected for a successful search.
If no facets are selected, an error message is shown to alert the user that none of the facets are selected.
The search can also be limited to specific fields such as author, title, publisher, publication place, publication date, subject, ISBN, ISSN, OCLC number, notes, call number and barcode.
