Search Tips
Search Tips
Our search has the following Google-type functionality:
+ (addition symbol)
If you use '+' at the start of a word, that word will be present in the search results.
eg. Harry +Potter
Search results will contain 'Potter'.
- (minus symbol)
If you use '-' at the start of a word, that word will be absent in the search results.
eg. Harry -Potter
Search results will not contain 'Potter'.
AND
If you use 'AND' between 2 words, then both those words will be present in the search results.
eg. Harry AND Potter
Search results will contain both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
OR
If you use 'OR' between 2 words, then either or both of those words will be present in the search results.
eg. 'Harry OR Potter'
Search results will contain just 'Harry', or just 'Potter', or both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
NOT
If you use 'NOT' before a word, that word will be absent in the search results. (This is the same as using the minus symbol).
eg. 'Harry NOT Potter'
Search results will not contain 'Potter'.
" " (double quotation marks)
If you use double quotation marks around words, those words will be present in that order.
eg. "Harry Potter"
Search results will contain 'Harry Potter', but not 'Potter Harry'.
* (asterisk)
If you use '*' in a word, it performs a wildcard search, as it signifies any number of characters. (Searches cannot start with a wildcard).
eg. 'Pot*er'
Search results will contain words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er', such as 'Potter'.

Our Favourites For This Month!
| Trois Femmes Puissantes This is the story of three women who say no. As these three lives intertwine, each woman manages an astonishing feat of self-preservation against the incomprehensibly methodical and relentless humiliation that is the unacknowledged life of those who have made themselves the fastest-growing, and most-reviled, people in Europe.
"Marie NDiaye is amazing. Each of the three protagonists is the embodiment of inner strength. Their humility & poise whilst facing the difficult situations they live through is inspiring & empowering. Trois Femmes Puissantes is a deserving recipient of the Prix Goncourt, France's most prestigious literary prize."

| Livre d'Hanna "This is story about Sarajevo Haggadah one of the oldest Jewish religious texts that is illustrated.The manuscript survived centuries, through wars and conflits, thanks to people from all ways of life with different religious beliefs who risked their lives in the process. Hanna Heath, rare-book conservator is tracing its journey from the beginning to a 21st century and a fascinating stories are emerging while she is restoring the manuscript. Highly emotional, well written and dramatically rich historical novel inspired by a true story, is also a love story, a triller and so much more."
