Tips for Searching on This Topic

Search Tip #1

A search term can be used in combination with another search term to improve the relevance of your search results in databases, the Library's Articles & More and Catalog searches, and even in Google and other search engines.

To find materials on gender identity, start with the search phrase "gender identity" then add a second or even third search term.

Examples:

  • "gender identity"
  • "gender identity" AND representation
  • "gender identity" AND "sexual orientation"
  • "gender identity" AND rights

Other suggestions:

  • queer AND philosophy
  • homosexuality AND philosophy
 
Search Tip #2

Try searching "gender identity" as a subject instead of a keyword to limit results to materials whose main focus is gender identity. A keyword search only means that your searched term appears somewhere in the text of the books and articles in your results.
