WebCat Search Hints

- Subject-specific hints for searching the library catalog

Use the subject heading "Spanish language--Study and teaching" to find books and other materials on this subject. You can add a country name at the end of the subject string to narrow to a geographic area (i.e., Spanish language--Study and teaching--Honduras). The call number in our general collection where you can find books on the teaching of Spanish is PC4065 on the 5th Floor.

To narrow to an age group or education level, use the same subject heading above with the education level added to the end of the string; i.e., "Spanish language--Study and teaching (Secondary)." Many of these materials will be found in our Curriculum Center, a learning lab and materials collection for education majors and student teachers, primarily.
