How to Find Books

• Go to the library’s home page, www. tuskegee.edu/libraries
• Click on the Library Catalog
• The four basic search commands are word or phrase, author, title, or subject.  Use the drop down arrow key to limit your search

Examples:

word or phrase = social problems in literature
author = Ralph Ellison
 title =  Race in Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man
subject = race relations
    E185.615 .R2126 2012
     - Write down the complete call number (This will help you to find the book on the shelf)

Example:   HQ1031. D34 2000
Some call numbers end in EB.  These are electronic books and can only be viewed online.

For example:  E185.615 .R2126 2012

To verify whether the library subscribes to a particular journal, follow the same steps as you did in finding a book.   Use your drop down arrow key to limit by periodical title

            Example:  periodical title = Journal of African Cultural Studies
