Literature Searches

These literature searches, conducted primarily in response to requests from patrons, cover a variety of topics and offer valuable citations, which include abstracts. This listing contains the most recent searches first, followed by past searches. All use the QUAKELINE® database and contain materials available from the UB Libraries. You can browse the searches, or you can search them by title keywords.

Title Keyword Search

  • Limit search terms to three (3)
  • "AND" is the default search operator; "OR" and "NOR " are not supported.
  • Examples: Use "moment" for "moment resisting" or "moment connections" or "Wood" retrieves "wood" and/or "wooden".
