How do you find books and articles on my topic?

Answer

The best way to search for resources on a topic is to create keywords from your topic. If you are looking for insects in Ohio, you would use 'insects' and 'Ohio'. Use the library website (bgsu.edu/library) and search the default search engine/search box on that page for: insects ohio. Limit your results to books and journal articles using the provided filters on the left-hand side.
