SearchEverything Box - Begin Your Research Here!

The SearchEverything box on our homepage is your gateway to articles, books, journals, and databases, searching over 95% of the library's resources in one location.

Tips for a successful search:

Use AND, OR, and NOT to expand and contract your search results. ex: automation AND Germany.
Use the * symbol to search different forms of a word. ex: engineer* also searches engineers, engineering, etc.
Use filters on the results page, such as "full text online," "peer-reviewed," and "publication date" to narrow results.
Don't copy/paste full citations - remove all punctuation or use the citation search tab at the top of the page.
