Author Search
Use the name by which the author is most well known. Search using the author field code (au:) within the Powell catalog search box above.
For example: au:maugham; au:w w jacobs; au:saki
Biography Search
Use the author's name along with the term "biography" within the subject field (su:) to find biographies on an author within the Powell catalog.
For example: su:hemingway biography; su:james joyce biography; su:o henry biography
TIP 1: The more common the last name, the more of the name is needed. For example names like "joyce" and "jacobs" are very common names. To be sure you are getting the author of short stories, include the first name or initials by which s/he is known.
Works Search
To find critical material on a specific work, search the title of the work with the title field code (ti:) or the keyword field (kw=; use the equal sign instead of a colon to treat the title as a phrase) along with the term "criticism" in the subject field.
For example: ti:youth medusa AND su:criticism; ti:dutch courage AND su:criticism; kw=twice told tales AND su:criticism.*
In some instances it may be necessary to include the author along with the title. For example: au:london AND ti:love life AND su:criticism
TIP 2: Using the keyword field will include "collections", "works of" and anthologies that otherwise might be missed because a keyword search searches not only the title field but also the table of contents.
* AND must be in all caps for the search engine to recognize it as a Boolean command instead of the word "and".
