Keyword Searching

Keyword searching is a powerful tool for exploring what we have on your topic. By using Boolean operators you can create a more precise search. This will eliminate long lists of irrelevant items.

Something you might try is doing a keyword search and look at the records that seem to be the most useful. Clicking on the subject headings will find similar items. You could also use the terms from the subject headings in a keyword search, in which case you would want to change the dropdown box from Words or Phrase to Subject.
