Education Research Guide: Books

Finding Books

The search bar below searches EVERYTHING available at both DSU and from other institutions across the country, including books, eBooks, journal articles, and more. You can narrow your search to just DSU using the filters provided in the left column of your results.

Start by performing a keyword search in the provided box.  You can narrow your results using the checkboxes (called 'filters') on the left of your results. You can narrow by type (eg. book or article), date (eg. last 5 or 10 years), topic, or peer-reviewed only.  When you find an item which targets your topic, you can explore more options by clicking on the subjects which are hyperlinked to a subject search.  A subject search usually helps focus your topic. (Watch THIS tutorial to see a search in action!)

You can also use the Local catalog to just locate books, eBooks, and government documents currently available at DSU's libraries.
