Searchworks

Searchworks is part of a new discovery environment that is being developed for Stanford users. With searchworks you can browse by call number across all of the libraries at one time instead of one library at a time in Socrates. Search results are relevancy ranked rather than reverse chronological order. You can also see what’s checked out and what’s online without having to view details. Some similar items are included automatically in the full display format. You can even preview the contents via a link to Google.
