Use the Libraries' ADVANCED SEARCH to find books on your topic in the WMU collection.

If you already know the title or author, use the pull-down arrow to select Title or Author.

When looking for books by topic, enter your keyword(s) into the search boxes.

SEARCH TIP:  If you are using a phrase in your search, be sure and put it in quotation marks, e.g., "industrial revolution"

SEARCH TIP:  Use an asterisk  *  to pick up variant endings of a word, e.g., crusad* will retrieve crusade, crusades, crusaders, etc.

SEARCH TIP:  When doing keyword searches in Library Search and in WorldCat, you can use the Library of Congress subject term historiography as one of your search terms.

                    For example, you could try the following search in the advanced search mode:                 
                        "united states"
                        "civil war"
                        historiography
