Princeton University Library (library.princeton.edu) has access to many resources that may be useful for your academic work. These include books, journal articles, datasets, video and audio material and more.
There are three main tools you could use to identify literature relevant to your research project or class work:
- Use the Library Catalog to search library holdings for resources, in a variety of formats, on your topic of interest. Searches could be conducted by keywords, title, author or subject (drop down menu). Search results could be narrowed further using filters such as location, format, publication year, language and other preferences located on the left hand side of the Library Catalog page. The Princeton University Library book holdings are extensive. However, if the material you are looking for is not available locally, we may be able to obtain it from a different institution through ArticleExpress, Borrow Direct or Interlibrary Loan.
- Use Article+ to search for journal articles throughout the Princeton University Library Holdings. Broad search could be conducted using keywords. Search could be modified and narrowed using the fields in the "Advanced" search page. To assure that your search results meet academic standards, make sure to check the "Scholarly & Peer Review" filter.
- Use a specific database for a search that may be efficient and targeted. The databases are curated and follow a more standard format and a careful process to decide what literature to include.
