Tips on Searching for Books on Foreign Policy
Search Terminology - Keywords and Subject Headings
When conducting research, always consider alternative keywords and subject headings for your topic. Begin by analyzing your topic or research question, and break it down into its key concepts. What keywords appear? Are there alternative keywords that come to mind?
For this course, keywords may include: foreign policy; foreign relations; international relations; diplomacy; names of individual countries or continents
Subject headings may include: International Relations; United States - Foreign Relations; names of individual countries (e.g. China - Foreign Relations)
When you discover a book of interest, select the "DETAILS" tab, and then the "FULL RECORD" tab to look at the assigned subject headings for that item. Note related subject headings, and click on them to find other books that are described in a similar way, and may prove useful.
