You can find print and electronic books using the UNT Library Catalog from the Libraries homepage by following these steps:

1. Locate the blue search box on the homepage
2. Select the Books & More tab to enter the catalog
3. Select either the "keyword" or "subject" search from the left-hand dropdown menu. 
4. Enter your search terms and click on the Search button

Keyword search = using 2 to 3 search terms to search entire record of each book in the catalog.

• The catalog automatically puts "and" between the terms so all results contain all of the terms
• If you get too few results, then reduce the number of terms
• If you get too many results, add a search term

Subject search = searching with 1 or more terms used by the catalog to describe your topic. This search only looks at words in the subject term field.

• Find subject terms at the bottom of a book record in the catalog 

Keyword and Subject Searches Combined = do a keyword search and then do subject searches.

• Do a keyword search with 2 or 3 terms
• Find a book on your topic and click on the title
• Scroll down the book's record and find the subject terms
• Do more searches with the subject terms

Keyword searches: evolution [organism], evolution relationships, evolution [body part or system], biodiversity, adaptation biology

Subject searches: evolution biology, evolution, human evolution, convergence biology, biodiversity, adaptation biology, coevolution

Be sure to try other searches as you see what terms are used in books and the subject terms.
