A more effective way to find resources on your topic of interest is to use the online catalog (http://uclid.uc.edu/search/X).  Perform a KEYWORD search using key concepts. Identify an item or two that is most relevant to your topic, look at the item record and identify the subject heading that best represents your selected concept. Click on the subject heading to see additional items and/or note it for later searching.

You may also limit your location to “Clermont”. However, be aware that this limit would eliminate electronic books and resources from the results.
