Important: not all books contain the same version of a particular chapter or essay. In particular, anthologies of older texts can contain extracts only.
To find a chapter or essay in a book using Summon, it is best to use advanced search.
To access advanced search directly from the library homepage, follow the link highlighted below:
To access advanced search from the results screen, follow the Options link that appears at the right of the search box:
For chapters and essays in books, it is best to search by both author and chapter/essay title, exactly like this:
The words from the title need to be searched using the All Fields option, as shown above. Changing All Fields to Title sounds like a good idea, but it's not in this case. However the author's name does need to searched using the Author rather than All Fields option. You can also use a fuller version of the title with quote marks, if you wish.
When you run this search, you will see the book title, not the chapter/essay title, in the results list:
This should be the book you need, but occasionally Summon gets it wrong. You can often check by following the Quick Look link, shown in the screenshot above. Often, but not always, the Quick Look panel will list the book's contents. If in doubt, you are welcome to contact the library staff before making a special trip to the Institute.
Searching directly in the book catalogue
Summon does not search the contents lists of every book in the SIA library. So if you do not find the chapter you need, the next thing to do is to search directly in the book catalogue, accessed from the top menu on the library homepage.
Run a basic search with the keywords from the chapter title (and, optionally, the author's name):
If a book containing the chapter is in the library, and if the book catalogue includes the contents list of that book, one or more results will appear:
Clicking on the book title in the result brings up further details, often including a contents list.
Sometimes the book catalogue includes more information about a book than Summon; and sometimes it is is Summon that has more information. So to search comprehensively, you may need to look in both places.
