Finding Encyclopedias, Bibliographies, and Reference Sources
Go to the Advanced Search for the catalog and use terms for reference sources in the "Subject" field. Instead, you can also try setting the location to "Regenstein Reference" which will narrow your results to reference collections, including the Slavic Reference Collection near the back of the 4th floor reading room. In "All Fields" add geographic, subject, or language keywords. You can also limit by language.
