CHFY001F Chass Connect: Religious Studies

CHFY001F Chass Connect: Religious Studies

How to research religious objects and their devotional and religious significance.

Books

Search the UCR Library Catalog (Scotty)

  • Refine searches using Subject Headings, if needed
  • Select titles that are relevant
  • Write down locations and call numbers 
  • Use call number maps to find specific floors where the books you need are located

    Tips

    Use * to find various endings of a word: e.g. altar* will find altar, altars and altarpiece. 

    If you find a book in Scotty that says "ill." in the Description line, then it includes images or illustrations.

    Check the bibliographies or lists of references in books for leads to other resources.
