If the player has no nonland cards in their hand, you can still search that player’s library and have them shuffle it.

The cards you’re searching for must be found and exiled if they’re in the graveyard because it’s a public zone. Finding those cards in the hand and library is optional, because those zones are hidden (even if the hand is temporarily revealed).
