To search for a book in the KNUST Library catalogue, open the library’s Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC) and enter information you know about the item. You can search using the book title, author’s name, subject, keyword, ISBN, publisher, or other bibliographic details.
For better results, start with a simple search such as the title or author’s name. If you get too many results, use additional information such as the publication year, subject, or ISBN to narrow the search.
After finding the book, review the catalogue record to check important details such as the title, author, publication information, call number, location, and availability status. The call number can help you locate the physical book on the library shelves.
If the catalogue shows that the book is available, note its location and call number before going to the appropriate section of the library. If it is on loan, you may be able to place a reservation or check whether another copy is available.
