I took a look at the OPAC stuff we have in Indiana, here are links
to a tip sheet on searching aimed at users:

http://www.in.gov/library/files/Advanced_search_guidelines.pdf

http://www.in.gov/library/files/Evergreen_Online_Catalog_Searching_Guidelines_April_2010.pdf

And a section on holds that is for staff, that could be adapted for
users:

http://www.in.gov/library/files/Understanding_and_Using_Holds_1228_Version_2.pdf


Sorry that stuff is PDF. Attached is the section on holds I've made
for catalogers as a word document.

I teach a class to the public on using the OPAC, and I'm planning to
create some handouts that are aimed at the public on bookbags, My
Account, etc. I'll send those along next week.
