[spcollig] Special Collections

[Ann Myers]

At SIUC, our rare book and processed archival collections are
represented in the catalog such that they can be found just as you would
search for other library materials - by Title, Keyword, Author, Subject,
etc. Our rare book collections have headings for collections names as
well (such as Twentieth Century Literature Collection) so that an entire
collection can be browsed online.

Greetings,

 

I was wondering how other libraries find their special collection in
their catalog.  

 

For instance, we need to know the  name of the special collection in
order to do the search to retrieve the items.

 

Thank you in advance,

Lydia
