Primary Sources - Advanced Methods

Library Discovery Systems (like UNI Rod Library’s OneSearch) can be used to identify a variety of primary sources. Searches can be limited by title and subject. Results can be limited by format and publication date.

The following Discovery Systems – from universities with premier history programs – will help you identify primary sources not owned by UNI. Check sources found with these Discovery Systems against OneSearch and if not owned by UNI request them requested via Interlibrary Loan).

Be sure to utilize Advanced Search options when available and to limit your search results to specific formats of information when possible.

Though the links above and below go to the Chicago quick guide - the full print Chicago Manual of Style is available for more complicated questions. These large print volumes can be found both at the Library Services Desk and in the Stacks.
