HIST 4835 - Race and Politics in South Africa: Books

• Start your book search by doing a simple search in Discover@MU, the search in the blue box on the MU Libraries homepage.
• The results page will also be the Advanced Discover@MU search, where you can adjust search terms as needed and filter results to "UM Books."
• You may filter further to "Library Locations" but if you do, you must choose one of these at a time; there are several MU locations (Ellis, UM Depositories, MU Law, etc.), so it's often best to leave the search at UM and look through the 4-campus results.
• We will fetch your books, but if you find books yourself, you may find more books.
• Expand book search to MOBIUS for more books that can be sent to you at MU.
• You can only use ebooks if they have an MU online access link.
• Always check the book's location, note its call number, and check that it is not checked out.
