What does Yale have on the conservation movement?

Try searching in Orbis for what you think is the appropriate subject:

If you searched for conservation or conservation movement as a subject, you saw that neither is an LC subject heading. You are presented with a list of possible subjects including those having to do with architecture, art, and library materials. The closest general subject is Conservation of natural resources.

For a paper on post-World War II American diplomatic history, what do you have?

There is no one way to bring up all collections that might relate to this general topic. Researchers should plan to devote time searching Orbis using various subject terms. You can also search personal names of presidents and other prominent persons of the time.

Since most of our collections are in some way related to history, we seldom use the subject term "history" in describing them. Instead we try to describe collections using more specific subject access points.

Try searching in Orbis for:

Dean Acheson
Diplomacy
United Nations
United States foreign relations 1945
United States history 1945

(If you had seen these as subject headings in another record they would have contained dashes. Orbis will perform searches with or without this punctuation and produce the same results.)

From the Advanced Search screen, you can also combine terms, as in the example below.
