Search tips
"Quick Search" is a simple search box which allows you to search multiple Library resources (articles, books, e-books) at the same time.
Full Text Access
Only RCMP network computers have access to the full text of online resources. Please read the conditions of use for electronic resources for more information.
"Quick Search" Tabs
"All Resources" Tab
Choose the "All Resources" tab for electronic magazine and journal articles, print books and e-books. You may check the "Catalogue" box to limit your search to the physical collection of the Library or choose "Full-text (online)" if you only wish to access full-text articles and e-books.
"Books" Tab
Choose the "Books" tab to search the print book collection in the physical library. Results may also include e-books.
RCMP employees who wish to borrow print books can consult our book loan procedures.
"ebooks" Tab
Choose "ebooks" to search only for books in PDF format.
What is the best way to search?
- Keyword searches will give you the most results, but it's less precise.
- Title searches are very precise, but you will have fewer results.
- Author searches are great for finding all resources published by a specific author.
Advanced field searching is possible from the "Results" screen. Other useful functions include limiting or sorting by date of publication, and limiting results to peer reviewed articles.
