macro button

Form is about :  Book characteristics
Contains:
Book reference number
Book title
Author
Date published
Book bin location

User wants to look up this book by first entering a parameter of “What is the book reference number” .  The  form opens with all the data associated with this book.

Then User wants to look up another book. ……………..
How can I make a button or macro or ?  , that allows the user to clear this current book data and then enter a  new parameter “ What is the book reference number” to bring up a new book  record without having to leave the form.

I can do a “close”, take me back to my DB main menu, then hit the button to ask the parameter  question and open the form. But I was trying not to leave the form, just ask for another record. Kind of like doing a refresh then starting from the “What is the book reference number “ again. Or, think about  the user put in the wrong book reference number and wants to retype it so the correct book shows up.

Does this help?  Sorry , maybe I’m trying to do something that can’t be done in Access.
