How can I find background information using encyclopedias and dictionaries?
General encyclopedias and dictionaries offer a wonderful way to develop a general understanding of a topic. Specialized
subject encyclopedias and dictionaries frequently provide a more detailed portrayl of a term. They can also assist with
topic selection. Some are available electronically while others may be located in the Reference Room of Maag Library on
the Main Floor. The print resources call also be found using the
call numbers for a particular discipline.
