WorldCat

Under advanced search, I chose to limit type to books, changed the audience to juvenile and changed the content to non fiction. I got 595 results with most of them being about Martin Luther King, Jr. so I went back and changed the search to Martin Luther not King and got 148 results. The titles I would recommend are Martin Luther : Father of the Reformation at Watertown Regional Library and Martin Luther: A Man Who Changed the World at Brookings Public Library.

I tried a few different searches using the genre/form and descriptor, but found I got the best results when I searched for the keyword "graphic novel" and keyword "classic". I would add Beowulf published by Candlewick Press.

I used the title phrase My Fair Lady and limited type to musical scores. The second record listed was for My Fair Lady (vocal score). The accession number is 26429906.

  1. Very good, Librena! Great use of limiters to get where your patron wants to go. Patrons will be impressed with your searching prowess!
