Search Engine Premier! Explore the Summon-powered search box on the library home page.

On Friday, March 23, Auraria Library launches a new search engine (Summon) that searches across our books, journals, ebooks, videos, maps, music  and more.  The search screen is currently in development, we will use your input and feedback to make modifications. Please use the feedback button if you have comments or questions.

The books tab (@Auraria, Colorado Libraries, World Libraries ...) will continue to search the Skyline, Prospector and WorldCat catalogs.  All other tabs will use the new Summon-powered search engine.

Give the “All” tab a test drive and start exploring!
