Bibliographies identify research that has been done on
various subjects; they often cite primary materials that are available
in manuscript or printed form. Graduate students must consult these
works in order to avoid missing significant materials that may not be in
this library. Undergraduates will also discover that using these tools
will help them make better use of this collection, because
bibliographies often bring together, in one list, material that may be
scattered throughout the library, in books, articles, or government
documents.
