Searching for Material on Specific TV Shows
If the above searches do not help you find material that is useful, trying searching in the catalog using the name of your show and the phrase "TV show" or simply "TV" or "television."
Example:
"this is us" and "TV show"
This search will bring back all materials in the library related to the TV show This Is Us, including books, book chapters, academic articles, news articles, blogs, and other resources.
If you search for a TV show title, make sure to use the "any field" search and to pull down the "is (exact)" option to make sure that the title of your TV show is the only words included in the search. You can also try putting the TV show title between quotation marks to ensure that only the title of the show is selected in the search.
