Keyword searching online catalogs for indexes

Do a keyword search on the broad subject area of your topic and indexes. You may need to try synonyms for the subject area in order to find the right term.

Remember, a keyword search will retrieve more irrelevant hits than a subject search.

Examples are:
biology and indexes
psychology and indexes
physics and indexes

And always remember, at any time you can ASK A LIBRARIAN for help.
