# New Feature: SIMsearch – Searchable SIMbook Content

SIMsearch allows users to search the full content of all licensed SIMbooks in their library. SIMsearch has been on a temporary hiatus since the full release of SIMnet for Office 2013 release on July 21, 2013. To search a SIMbook:

1. Click the **LIBRARY** link in the top navigation bar and select a book from the bookshelf.
2. Click the **Search** tab.
3. Enter your search term. For example, search for **PMT** in the Office level book.
4. Click **Go**.
5. The search results will appear below. Results are ordered based on the number of matching terms found per page. The results include the 5 words before and after the search term as they appear on the SIMbook page.
6. Click the page title to launch the SIMbook chapter and view the selected page. All Show Me, Guide Me and Let Me Try activity is tracked in the Library of the selected chapter.
