Searching for Books

Books are useful for background information or an overview of the topic; of course, they can also provide in-depth discussion. When you find a book of interest, scan the table of contents and the introduction to see what sections are useful to you. You may wind up reading the whole book or just zeroing in on a chapter or two.
 
Use this search bar to search for books and articles in the library's catalog. 

 

Once you find a book of interest, open the record, and scroll down to the details. There you will find subject terms that may be useful in searching for your topic.

 

Scroll down further in the record, and you will see a virtual bookshelf so you can browse more books on your topic.
