The torbis OPAC may also be used for bibliographic instruction and other classes in the event that some portion of the production OPAC search functionality isn't working (if the Keyword index is down, for example).

WARNING! Data in the 'Torbis' OPAC is based on a copy of the production database that is frequently several months out-of-date. Search the title "Where am I" to determine when the copy was created. The region also contains staff test records that do not exist in production Orbis.
