Catalog Search Tips

Try a keyword search. Once you find a book that is relevant to your topic, use the subject headings of that book to help you find "more like this".

Keyword search: Subject headings:
  • Chinese poems
  • Chinese poets
  • Chinese poetry -- history and criticism
  • Chinese poetry -- Tang Dynasty, 618-907

 

tip: After you do a search, you can use the Language filter to limit your results by language, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Or start in the Advanced Search and limit by language at the outset.

tip: Consult the Library of Congress transliteration schemes for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean to see how characters are represented in the catalog.
