You may perform a KEYWORD search in the online catalog (http://uclid.uc.edu/search) using concepts that interest you, such as:

artsubj

From the results, identify an item or two that is most relevant to your topic; look at the item record and identify a SUBJECT heading that best represents your topic.  In this case the SUBJECT would be “Painting, Renaissance—Italy.”

You may also search an artist as a SUBJECT (last name, first name). 

You may limit your location to Clermont, but be aware that this may eliminate important resources that can be easily borrowed from another library.  Other examples of SUBJECT headings are:

Art

Art -- 16th century

Art -- 19th century

Art -- France (or any country name)

Art, American (or other culture)

Art -- History

Art, classical

Art deco
