Finding Resources in the Library's 
Online Catalog

The library's online catalog will tell you what books, periodicals, and other media the Contra Costa College Library owns. There are several ways to search for information in an electronic database such as the online catalog, depending on what information you have and what information you are looking for. Most often, you will search by subject, keyword, title, or author.
