Browse Circulating Books

Looking for circulating books on International Relations?  Call numbers for such books often (not always) begin with JZ (4th floor, Bird Library).  In some instances, you may also identify book titles on military or naval sciences, which are available upon request.


 Search the Library's main search engine, SUMMON , or alternatively, the  Classic Catalog to identify relevant titles.
Volume of SUMMON search results lists tend to be sizable. Following your search query, consider narrowing that list by applying post search result refinements available at the left margin of those results lists (especially - refining by desirable "content types"..such as "journal article" or "book/ebook" or "reference" or "data set" and/or refine by specific desired "publication dates" or publication date ranges).

 

  • SUMMON:  A search engine for most of the Syracuse University Libraries' collections and other resources beyond the SU Libraries.  Includes articles, books, journals, maps, sound recordings, archival materials, government documents, and more.  Use for searching for articles.  Narrow or expand results using multiple search refinements.
  • Classic Catalog: A list of print and electronic materials available in the Syracuse University Libraries.  Includes books, journals, maps, sound recordings, archival materials, government documents and more.  Search by keyword, author, title, subject heading, or call number.
