How do I know this is a secondary, scholarly source? Most of our eBooks in the history subject area will be secondary sources and most are scholarly. Collections of letters, autobiographies, children's books and historical fiction will not meet your requirements, so watch out for those!
Our library catalog makes that easy! Here's a way to use it to find secondary-source eBooks. Here's how:
1)Visit Moye Library's Homepage.
2) Type your subject in the search box and select Books under the search box. (See example below.)
3) This search will find you books all over the world, so you will want to limit the results to what we have available online. (It works a lot like filters on Amazon.) If you are using a tablet or phone, the filters will appear at the top of the search results screen.
4) First, Limit to University of Mount Olive, Moye Library and eBooks. This finds eBooks that we have available for your to read online.
5) You can limit to History and Auxiliary Science under the Subject filter if you want to narrow your results to books on the subject of history. (You may need to scroll down to see this filter.)
