ENGINEERING
A SELECTIVE GUIDE TO LIBRARY RESOURCES
This selective guide
contains a bibliography of titles and electronic resources that will assist
members of the Aggie community with research in all disciplines of
Engineering. It outlines a general approach to finding not only materials
and resources housed in the F.D. Bluford Library but also electronic sources
that available through F.D. Bluford Library’s web pages. Other research
oriented Internet sites are also suggested.
This guide will help students organize their research and at the same
time give them some tips on research strategy. Remember that researching any
topic can seem overwhelming. Questions regarding this list (or any
research question) should be directed to the F. D. Bluford Library Reference
Desk.
Table of Contents:
Using the Catalog:
Establishing
what books the library owns on your subject should be your top priority.
The Catalog identifies all the books, videos, journals, microforms, and other
formats owned by the Library. The Catalog can be searched by Author, Title, Keywords, Subject Headings, LC Call Number, Professor, or Course Name. Use
the “Keywords” search
option if you know neither specific books nor standardized subject
headings. These subject headings are accessible through five volumes of Library of Congress Subject Headings
located near the workstations on the first floor of the Library.
Research
Strategy Hint: Use the *
(asterisk) or the "OR"
operator to expand a small set to a larger set. Strategic use of the
“Limit this Search”
command and the "AND"
operator can narrow down an overwhelming list to a manageable size.
Encyclopedias:
Great places to start are
encyclopedias, especially if you are unfamiliar with your topic.
Recognized authorities in the field write these articles. These review
articles provide background information on the history, basic tenants,
important persons, and other established facts or ideas significant to the
topic. Most articles also provide an extensive bibliography of sources
with more in-depth analysis of your topic.
Research
Strategy Hint: When using encyclopedias, first consult the
index volume, usually the last volume of the set, or table of contents for your
topic. These will indicate if your topic
is featured article or only a portion of a larger article.

Dictionaries:
Dictionaries
provide brief entries that are quick and helpful sources for the definition or
identification of a term, movement, or person in history. A Thesaurus can
direct you to the terms used in a Print Index or Database. As terminology
changes over the life of a research topic, you must know all the words
associated with a given topic.

Indexes,
Abstracts, and Databases:
Books, handbooks, and
encyclopedias do not contain the most recent research on your
topic. For this current research, you should consider using the print
and/or electronic indexes to find journal articles or conference papers
discussing your topic. You may need to consult more than one index and
more than one format to obtain a comprehensive working bibliography.
Databases permit more comprehensive searching for citations.
Research
Strategy Hint: Searching is faster and more precise if you take
advantage of “Boolean Logic”
(AND,
OR,
NOT,
etc.) and controlled vocabulary. Keyword searching should be used for
current or "new" research topics. Once an "excellent"
article is discovered, scan the Subject
Headings (also called Descriptors)
and search again using those terms. Online help is available for learning
advanced searching techniques.
Print Indexes:
Access is gained to citations
through author, subject, or keyword-in context (KWIC) indexes in annual
cumulations. Some indexes have controlled vocabulary described in accompanying
thesauri while some indexes use unique classification codes or schemes.
Journal title abbreviations are explained at the front and/or back of the
Index.

Bibliographic
and Full-Text Databases:
Bibliographic resources
contain bibliographic citations and abstracts of specific articles,
documents, reports, papers or proceedings. The Catalog or the Electronic
Journals resource must be consulted for library holdings or accessibility.
Interlibrary loan is available to graduate students and faculty for items not
owned.
Full-text resources contain the bibliographic citations AND
the entire text of specified articles, documents, reports, papers or
proceedings. The Catalog need not be consulted for library
holdings. Most databases offer the option of downloading, printing, or

Technical
Reports:
Technical Reports are a form
of "Grey Literature." They are not intended to be part of the
permanent literature. Those who prepare technical reports must report the
results of research sponsored by the government. These cannot be classified as
government documents because they are not produced directly by a government
agency, but by individuals in the agency or laboratory. They can also be
a separate type of publication, like ERIC or NASA documents. Technical
reports are indexed by the National Technical Information Service (NTIS).
The following print publications, databases, and Internet sites index technical

Standards
and Specifications:
Standards
are rules, techniques, and/or conditions which must be followed for industrial
practices, engineering design, terminology, etc. These may be voluntary
or imposed by a country or international organization. Standards ensure
cooperation and communication among researchers and engineers. Standards also ensure consistency and
uniformity during production of goods and services.

Patents:
Patents
are contracts between governments and inventors. They are only honored in
the country in which they are issued. Knowledge of existing or pending
patents can save a researcher time, effort, and/or legal trouble. North
Carolina State University has the closest Patent Depository Library. The
U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Internet site offers the full text of over two
million patents dating back to 1976. Interlibrary Loan can obtain any
patent.
