Pegasus: Find Books with Part of the Title or Author

If you know words in the title, or part of an author's name, but lack the exact information needed to do an exact title or author search, do a title or author keyword search.

Example 1: You want to find the Harry Potter book about the prisoner of azkaban. You did an exact title search on "prisoner of azkaban" and got no results. Try a title words search instead:

Step 1: Enter words from a title
example with title words prisoner of azkaban

Step 2: Results.
results for prisoner of azkaban

Example 2: You want to find books by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, but aren't sure whether to use the last name of "garcia-marquez" or "marquez" for an exact author search. Try an author words search instead:

Step 1: Enter words in an author's name
example with author words garcia marquez

Step 2: Results.
results for garcia marquez
