Q. I need to find a book for my book report, and I need help getting started. It's for History 1301. My topic is women in the west.

To find a book on your topic, do a search in One Search, our catalog. The link is below.

Try a subject search by typing or copy/pasting su:Women West (U.S.) History.

You can use the subject links in the record to explore other options.

As far as getting started on the assignment, just be sure to read the directions carefully, and follow each step. For example, one of the steps is to do a correct bibliography, so be sure to get the citation. In One Search there is a cite/export link to the right of the title.  Click on the quotes and change to the correct format.  You can copy and paste that into your Word document, correcting for spacing and hanging indention.
