University of Wisconsin System Libraries
College and university libraries will likely have more resources than your school or public library. The University of Wisconsin System Libraries will link you to the online catalogs for schools in the UW System. You can try searching for your topic in their online catalog or you can visit the library in person. Make sure to talk to librarians and reference staff for help in learning how to search the catalog and about other subscription services you may be able to access while on campus.
