The purpose of this Library guide is to provide information on where to find basic print and electronic resources for doing research in the area of United States History. It is a selective list, intended as a starting point rather than as an ending for your research. Title and Author searches are relatively easy.
Subject searches are trickier.
If all this seems confusing, try a Keyword search instead. For example, suppose you want to find some books about our participation in the war that took place in 1898, but you can't remember what it's officially called. You will get a list of over 100 items relating to the Spanish-American War. Click on this line, then click on Search. These resources do not circulate.
