    • Keywords (use the Boolean operator "AND" to connect key terms) Sample search: immigration AND film
    • Title (omit initial articles such as ‘the' and ‘a') 
      Sample search:  Kite Runner
    • Subject begins with… (use Library of Congress subject headings) Sample search:   Motion Pictures
    • Author (last name first) sample search: barthes, roland
  • For more help searching the Catalog, see Help section of the Catalog or Contact a Librarian for assistance.
