Finding Books

Use Tri-C's online catalog or OhioLINK's online catalog to find books about your topic.  For example, if your topic is societal sterotypes of african american men, try:

• a Keyword search for:  african american men and stereotypes
  
  This will retrieve books that contain the words "african american men" and "stereotypes".   Please note that the books may or may not be *about* stereotypes and african american men.  It just could be that the record contained those words for another reason.
• Use a Subject search to search for books written *about* Othello

1. Use a Subject search to search for books written *about* William Shakespeare and his works
