Find
- Find a Book?
To find a book, go to the Bankier Library Catalog. When you bring up the Bankier Library Catalog, it is automatically set to do a Keyword search. You can use the pull-down menu to change your search type.
- Find an article on my topic
(1) Go to the library home page, click on the Databases and Articles under the “Research Tools” menu.
(2) You can select databases by title or by subject.
(3) Once you have selected a database, type in your search terms, and you will obtain a list of citations that pertain to your topic. Each database is different. Please ask a librarian if you need help.
(4) After you identify articles that you want to read, the next step is to locate the actual articles. Some of these articles may be available full-text in HTML, PDF or plain text format online. Others will simply point you to appropriate materials, which may be housed in the Bankier Library.
(5) With the article citations, you can search the Bankier Library Catalog to find out if the Library has the journal that you are looking for.
(6) If the journal is not available through Bankier Library in print or electronically, you may order the article by filling out an Interlibrary Loan request.
