FINDING BOOKS

Holy Cross Library Catalog

Catalog search tips: When you don't have a particular title of a book in mind, begin by searching for a key term about your research topic. Once you've found some books on your topic, look at the subject headings for those books. These headings will often use different terminology to describe a topic, but these links can be very helpful for finding more sources on your topic. You can follow the subject heading links in the catalog to find similar books, or you can use the terms in the subject headings to revise your search strategies.

Examples of Subject Headings:

Tourism -- Environmental aspects.

Heritage Tourism.

Tourism -- Social aspects.

Tourism -- Moral and ethical aspects.

WorldCat Allows users to search the collections of libraries all over the world. If you'd like a book that HC does not have, submit an interlibrary loan request.
