We have a new online catalog fall semester, 2022, which is undergoing various improvements. It does not work exactly the way these older directions below portray. Some of the information about subject headings may still be useful.
It is possible to do a quick and dirty, one box keyword search of the contents of the MSU Libraries' web site, starting at the top left of the Libraries' home page. The results will be sorted into several categories to follow up on: articles from journals, books/media from our online catalog, databases, library research guides like this one, other. To do a more traditional search, read on.
Use Books and Media (online catalog). The Library of Congress List of Subject Headings,a set of fat, red books in the Reference collection first floor East, at Z 695... provides the official subject headings for use in LC Subject searches. Keyword searches, using any word out of one's head as a topic, may also be used. These common subject headings may be useful; use subject search.
