Look for books with call numbers containing "ERC" at the beginning and subject headings with the terms "Juvenile poetry," "Juvenile literature," "Juvenile fiction," "Children's stories," or "Pictoral works" at the end.

Change the catalog's dropdown box to "Title" if you know the exact title of the book you want.  For example:

Title: Olivia

Change the catalog's dropdown box to "Author" if you know the book's author or illustrator.  Remember to invert the name (last name, first name).  For example:

Author: Seuss, Dr.

Illustrator: Sabuda, Robert

Change the catalog's dropdown box to "Subject" if you know the exact topic you are looking for.  If you are not sure of the right terms, try searching by "Keyword."  For example:

Subject: Cats -- Juvenile fiction

Subject: Cats -- Behavior -- Juvenile poetry

Subject: Cats -- Folklore -- Juvenile fiction

Some of our book records contain notes about any awards that a book has won.  Change the catalog's dropdown box to "Keyword" to search for award winning books.  For example:

Keyword: Newbery Honor Award

Keyword: Coretta Scott King Award

Keyword: Caldecott Honor Book
