Search tips for many library databases:
Add * to the start of a word to find all possible endings: colon* finds colony, colonies, colonial, colonialism, etc.
Insert ? to stand for exactly one character: Para?tos finds Parantos and Parautos (the "n" in hand-set type sometimes shows up as "u")
Tip for brainstorming search terms: use vocabulary of the time instead of contemporary wording.
You can also browse by date!
Check out the library's History subject guide for more resources.
In library database search results you will see a Get it @ UP link. This is a special tool to help connect you to full text.
If the Get it @ UP link doesn't connect you, or anything is confusing, use the Clark Library's Interlibrary Loan (UP ILLiad) service to request the item. UP ILLiad can also obtain copies of primary sources if you have a citation.
