SEARCH TIPS

Diamond Search Tips

Phrase Searching: Enter multiple search terms (a.k.a. keywords)
into Diamond's Basic Keyword Search Box. Results privilege
records containing the entered terms as a phrase
(e.g. British Empire, Manifest Destiny, etc.). However, lower down
in the results list Diamond also returns records containing the
search terms in any field, any order (this is the Boolean "AND"
search described below). To eliminate the latter from the results
list use quotation marks. Doing so will force Diamond to return
only records containing the phrase exactly as entered.
Example: The basic keyword search lesbian herstory results in
3 records, whereas "lesbian herstory", with quotes, results in only
2 records. Why? A single record from the first set of results has
been eliminated in the second set, namely the record in which
the terms lesbian AND herstory are present but not as a phrase.

Boolean Operators: The three most important Boolean operators
are: 1) AND; 2) OR; and 3) AND NOT. Use AND to require the
presence of multiple search terms in any field, any order.
Use OR to group synonymous search terms in parenthetical
expressions. Use AND NOT to exclude search terms. Both search
terms and operators can be capitalized if you wish
(for example, America vs. america; AND vs. and), but this makes
no difference to the outcome of the search. NEAR is a fourth
Boolean operator, often called a proximity operator. It works like
AND in that it forces Diamond to return only records containing
both of the search terms it connects, but it differs in that the
terms must appear in proximity or within five words of one
another.
Example 1: Lincoln AND Copperheads;
Example 2: (Aztec OR Maya) AND writing;
Example 3: genocide AND NOT (Holocaust OR Shoah);
Example 4: Japan* NEAR Truman.

Wildcards: Find all variants of a search term based on its root.
This ensures that no relevant results will be missed. Search terms
can be right-hand truncated using an asterisk or question mark:
'*' for 1-5 characters, '?' to replace a single character anywhere
within a search term. Examples: environment*; politic*; wom?n

Field Limiters: Field limiters force Diamond to search only the
specified field for the specified search term(s). The most useful
field limiters are "t:" (restricts search term to title field); "a:"
(restricts search term to author field); and "s:"
(restricts search term to subject field).
Examples: t:revolution; a:toynbee; s:history.

 While bookmarks can be useful for a limited number of frequently

easily be accessed in the future with the search tools and site search tools
available for the place where one stores this information, public or private.

Meet the Googles Goes to a Sacred Concert :
Te Deum Laudamus

The Te Deum
(also known as Te Deum Laudamus,
Ambrosian Hymn or A Song of the Church)
is an Early Christian hymn of praise. The hymn remains
in regular use in the Roman Catholic Church in the
Office of Readings found in the Liturgy of the Hours,
and in thanksgiving to God for a special blessing
(eg. the election of a pope, the consecration of a
bishop, the canonization of a saint, the profession
of a religious, the publication of a treaty of peace,
a royal coronation, etc) either after Mass or Divine
Office or as a separate religious ceremony.[1]
The hymn also remains in use in the Anglican
Communion and some Lutheran Churches in
similar settings.

Traffic Congestion OR
Meet the Googles Tackles the Traffic Jam
When traffic demand is great enough that the interaction between vehicles
slows the speed of the traffic stream, congestion is incurred. As demand
approaches the capacity of a road (or of the intersections along the road),
extreme traffic congestion sets in. When vehicles are fully stopped for
periods of time, this is colloquially known as a traffic jam. Wikipedia

What began with 35 black kids at a tough West Philadelphia neighborhood
pool in 1971 grew into a juggernaut in the mostly white world of
competitive swimming in the 1980s and 90s with more than 150 children
taking lessons or competing in meets. Several of Ellis charges swam their

LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS: RESOURCES:
Languages of the World
The main purpose of this website is to provide
information about the language families of the
world and their most important and populous
members, including their history, status, their
linguistic characteristics, and their writing in
as simple and concise a way as possible.
We base this website on the belief that all
languages have evolved from the need of human
beings to express their thoughts, beliefs, and
desires, that all languages meet the social,
psychological, and survival needs of people
who use them. In this sense, all languages,
no matter how small and remote, are equal.
All equally deserve study because all of them
provide valuable insights into human nature.

    Search for Books Using
    Temple Resources 
    (Temple Faculty, Staff and Students)

     

    • Diamond: Library Catalog  
        
      Search here for books owned by Temple.
    • E-ZBorrow  
        
      Search here for books from PA libraries, requests are received in 3-5 business days.
    • Google Books  
        
      Search the full-text of books. You won't be able to view more than a couple pages of most of the books, but if you can use the search capabilities here to identify relevant books that you can then look-up in the library.
    • WorldCat  
        
      Search here for books across libraries worldwide. You can request books you find that Temple doesn't have through E-ZBorrow or Interlibrary Loan.

    Find Dissertations

    Dissertations by Temple Students:

    A majority of them are available as full text pdfs from:

    Proquest Dissertations & Theses @ Temple University

    They can also be found as bound volumes in the library on the 3rd floor of Paley. Search them in the library's catalog using the keywords "theses" and whatever subject you are interested in. If you want a comprehensive list of dissertations in a college/school/department, search through the Proquest link above.

    Dissertations from Outside Temple:

    While you may find citations and abstracts of dissertations in a number of databases, the best place to search out dissertations is:

    Proquest Dissertations & Theses

    This will provide pdf previews of the first 24 pages of most of the dissertations.

    To read the complete dissertation you would need to either a) request it through interlibrary loan (who will borrow a print copy from the originating school) or b) purchase through Proquest.
