The Parkview Alexandria Researcher is Parkview's Online Library Catalog.   The online catalog is accessible to students and staff  24/7.

Basic instructions on how to use Alexandria on the web:

1. Click on patron status.
   • A window pops up for you to enter your name and password.
   • Note:  For Name, put the student ID that has been assigned to you.
   • For Password, put your last name.
2. A window opens stating books checked out, etc.
3. Go to the main Alexandria search screen, type in the title, author or subject of the book.
4. Clicking on the underlined title of the book will provide the bibliographic information. At this point you can place a hold or a reservation on the book.
   • A reservation checks out a specific copy of a book in advance for a particular time. 
   • A reserve is just for use in the library.
   • A hold request puts your name on a list to check out an item when the item becomes available.
5. Always log out when finished.
