Anne Ross Library Catalogue Records Searchable in EBSCO Discovery Service

Now when you search for information resources using our 'one search' interface, the EBSCO Discovery Service (EDS), you will also be retrieving the holdings records of the Anne Ross Library.

Our Library World OPAC (online public access catalogue) is now integrated into the EBSCO Discovery Service database to facilitate easier searching of the library's resources.

The Discover Search interface (EDS) is shown here highlighting the location of library holdings information. Links back to the LibraryWorld database are included. In the left side bar notice the location of the search 'limiter' to narrow your search to retrieve only items that are held in the library.

View of these same materials as found in the Anne Ross Library Catalogue.

EDS also includes records for the resources held at UMHS Maine Campus.
Links to our various eBook Collections and extensive downloadable ebook holdings are also retrievable through this same 'one search' interface.
