13 Hack #1- Limit, Limit, Limit Try some facets, they’re amazing! Basic/Advanced Searching Limit by library, format, author, publisher, etc.

14 Hack #1- Limit, Limit, Limit To narrow down these thousands of results, Summon offers facets too! Summon allows for even more flexibility by including or excluding multiple facets at once!
