Locating a Title in Oxford Reference
In the style of Google keyword searching, where researchers seek information on a specific topic, Oxford Reference defaults to showing relevant entries rather than books. But finding the Oxford title you want can be just as easy.
- Type all, or part, of a book title into the quick search box (e.g. ‘english literature’). Press Enter. Tab to book view to see all books with ‘english literature’ in their title, or description
- Click a subject from the subject browse panel at the top of the page (e.g. Music), which displays all entries in that subject area. Tab to book view to see all books in that subject
- Click a reference type from the reference type browse panel at the top of the page (e.g. Subject Reference, Bilingual Dictionaries, etc). Tab to book view to see books in that reference type
PLUS:
Every book has a book home page displaying bibliographic information, a browse list of all its entries, a contents list of any available front and end matter such as contributor information and appendices, and a ‘search within this work’ box. See for example A Dictionary of Critical Theory.
> Tip: If you use a particular book regularly, why not create a shortcut to its home page in your browser? In addition, users can sign in to their individual accounts and click the ‘Save’ icon on highly used book home pages to add them to their My Content list, making it easy to click back to them at any time while on the site. See My Work for more information.
