Additional published primary sources, collections of primary sources, and guides to primary sources may be retrieved systematically by subject keyword searches in UC Library Search. Selecting UC San Diego Catalog will ensure that you limit your search to items accessible at UCSD, but a broader search in Articles, Books and More can help you find resources available throughout the UC System that you can request via Interlibrary Loan. One generally effective initial search syntax is: [country or region] [history] [sources], as in peru history sources or central america history sources or latin america history sources. To find specific types of published primary sources in subsequent search approaches, replace sources with one of these subject terms: diaries, correspondence, narratives, catalogs, manuscripts, archives, archival. Another way to narrow the results down to relevant resources is to use the facet menu on the left; the terms/fields under Subject should be particularly useful.
