It can be difficult to search our databases and catalog for books and articles in other languages. Here are some useful tips that will make finding these materials easier.
- Type your search terms in the language of interest.
- Search in English, but limit your results to a particular language in a search field.
- Diacritics may or may not be detected in your search. Type the search word without the diacritic. Example: El Niño — type as El Nino.
- Some databases search the full text of an article while most only search the abstract. If the article is in Spanish, the abstract will probably only be in English.
