Please use the Library's online catalog, to find books relevant to the study of social work. Although you may search the catalog in a variety of ways, one of the most effective ways to find a variety of materials on a specific topic is to conduct a subject search.
Some of the general subject headings that may be useful when looking for social work research include:
Human Services
Public Welfare
Child Welfare
Teenage Parents
You can also use more narrowly defined subject headings to find materials in specific areas of social work research. If you are interested in government policy in social work, for example, you might use subject headings like:
Aid to Families With Dependent Children
Federal Aid to Child Welfare
Youth – Government Policy
Aged – Legal Status, Laws, etc.
WorldCat offers author, title and subject access to books owned by libraries throughout the United States and the world. WorldCat is available through NCLIVE
