Interview
with Crystal Yap
Where did you go to start your search for a book?
A: I went to UWG’s data base, www.westga.edu/library/
What did you do find your book?
A: I typed the title of the book I was looking for in the search bar. I looked for a
matching title and author to the book I was looking for. It was the first entry to pop up.
I clicked on it to find out more information to confirm that this was what I was looking
for.
How do you find a book from the info listed?
A: The holdings section on the link told me the call number and what floor/shelve the
book was shelved on
How did you know what to do?
A: I learned how to search my books through the library catalogue from my history
teacher sophomore year.
What is your best tip when it comes to finding a book in the catalogue?
A: My best tip is making sure that the title and the author matches the entry that
comes up so I’m not looking for the same titled book but written by a different author.
It has different material and it could end up giving me the information I’m not looking
for.
