NEED HELP SEARCHING FOR RESOURCES?

You can do two types of searches - Keyword, which looks for the word anywhere OR Subject, which looks for the relationship between words.  A keyword search is a great way to start out if you have no idea which subjects are indexed in the University Libraries' SWAN Catalog.  Once you find a book or media (DVDs, CDs, etc.) that you like via a keyword search, click on the title and scroll down to look at the subjects listed below the book's title.  Plug these into the search box and select "Subject" from the search menu.  This will help you narrow down your search even further.
