Introducing a NEW library research tool, LIBSEARCH.

LibSearch is the Library’s new all-in-one discovery tool, powered by EBSCO Discovery Service (EDS). It allows our patrons to search nearly all of the Library’s physical and digital resources all at once — books, eBooks, scholarly articles, streaming media, databases, and more — through a single, user-friendly platform.

Try the new tool below!

Start by entering some Keywords and accessing the Search button. 

The Los Angeles Film School Library seeks to provide the LAFS community with the best possible environment and resources for research and support.

MISSION

The LAFS Library plays a vital role in supporting the educational and professional development of its students, staff, and alumni by providing current and relevant books, media, and digital resources. The Library supports its patrons in locating and retrieving information from a wide range of sources and facilitating the learning resource system for the LAFS community.

Search through our library catalog, KOHA, which allows users to locate items within the library's collection. The catalog is used to find materials based on author, title, subject, or format which makes it easier to find what you are looking for.
