What is Encore?

Encore is the library's new interface to the library catalog that functions more like a search engine. It features:

  • A simple starting point– just type in your search terms and go!
  • Many options for refining your search, by format (book, DVD, etc.), year of publication, subject heading ("tag"), and more.
  • Suggested titles ("popular choices") that match your search.
