In Power search, use the fields in this section to define the search for titles in your library or other locations:

• Location (available in Basic and Power search): Narrow the search to materials owned by your school, the entire district or a group of schools (such as all elementary, middle or high schools).
  

  Note: The ability to search other schools in the district requires the Search all library sites permission.

  Note: You can narrow the search to Follett eBooks by selecting Electronic Book (eBook) and then selecting the Limit to Follett eBooks checkbox.
