How to find Resources in
a Subject not included in Hesburgh’s “Find Resources by Subject” guide:
- The electronic resources available through Hesburgh
also cover many subject areas for which Notre Dame
has no undergraduate, graduate, or professional
programs (and thus no corresponding research/subject
guides).
- Open Google (or your preferred search
engine)
- Limit the domain for your query to “.edu”
- Search
for:
[name of subject] library research guide
- To search for guides at U.S. law schools only,
use this link:
http://library.lawschool.cornell.edu/WhatWeDo/ResearchGuides/CLL-Legal-Research-Engine.cfm
- Browse
the results and select a current guide from a
reputable institution.
- You may not be able to access
another institution's subscription based databases
and journals via the
research guide that you find.
- Use Hesburgh’s Find
a Specific Journal link
to find out if we have the journal(s) referenced
in another institution’s guide.
- To locate
a specific database at Notre Dame, use the "Find
Resources by Title" option
from the University
Libraries home page (the link is located at the bottom of the light blue box on the upper right portion of the web page) and select
the letter of the alphabet corresponding to the [first
letter of the name of the] database that you want
to find.
