A core function in Alma is its search: many activities begin with a search, and a search can produce a tremendous amount of useful information to be exported.
What can you search in Alma?
Depending on your user role(s), you can search many items in Alma's repository, including:
1) Metadata records compiled by Ex Libris or local to your institution or collaborative network. These records include:
- Local inventory, including holdings for physical items, electronic portfolios, and digital representations and files
- Bibliographic titles, including top-level collections, physical titles, electronic collection and portfolio titles, and digital titles
- Authority records

- Patron requests
