Search the catalog

The Sublette County Library catalog is part of the Wyoming Libraries Database (WYLD). This collective database gives you access to the collections of most libraries throughout Wyoming, a collection of over one million titles. The library's public computers also offer access to periodical indexes and State government information.

Searching for an item

The first search screen you see when accessing the library catalog is for basic searches. From this screen, you can search for keywords from the title, author, subject, magazine title or keywords anywhere in the records in the database.

By clicking on the radio button to toggle between keyword, browsing or exact, you change the type of search that you perform.

• Keyword searches look for your terms anywhere in the field (keyword, title, author, subject, periodical title) you have chosen.
• A Browse search is like virtually scanning the shelves for your item.
• An Exact search must be entered exactly as the words appear in the record.

More advanced search options are available by clicking on the link to Advanced Search.

Placing a hold

To place a hold, click on the button labeled Request which appears to the left of the item information in the full details screen. If you have not already logged in with your library card and PIN, you will be asked to verify this information. If there is more than one volume available for this item, you may be asked to select a particular volume for your hold. If an item is not available at the Sublette County Library, you can still request it through the interlibrary loan (ILL) service. Holds which are placed on items outside your own library may not display immediately in your Account record.

Placing an interlibrary loan (ILL) request

If an item is not available in our library but is found in another WYLD library or at the University of Wyoming, you can request the ILL by clicking on the Request button from the full details screen.

You can also request material if you cannot find any record in the catalog by clicking on the Request Material link in the navigation menu at the top of the catalog and filling out the appropriate form as completely as possible.

Each of these types of requests will be processed by library staff and may not display as part of your account activity in the My Account section of right away. If you have any questions about your pending requests, please contact us at 367-4114 or circulation@sublettecountylibrary.org for assistance.
