RELS:3976 (149:076) American Indian Environmentalism: Finding Books
Lesson - Finding Books (and more) in InfoHawk+
What can InfoHawk+ help me find?
InfoHawk+ searches our physical materials (books, DVDs, etc.). It's the tool you need to use to find a book on the shelf, or an e-book online. Books are only part of what it can find.
It will also search a wide range of electronic resources, including Iowa Research Online, selected major databases in a diverse set of academic disciplines, and items unique to the UI Libraries like those in our Iowa Digital Collections.
Tips
- Use the library catalog to find books and journls the library owns. Use a Research Database to find individual articles on your topic.
- The library has material in many formats: Print and electronic books, government publications and reports, journals, theses, and more.
- Know when to use the UI library and when to use your local public library
