Mathematics and Computer Science Subject Guide: Reference Sources

Reference works like encyclopedias, dictionaries, almanacs, and other collections of information may help you:

• Understand historical or social context
• Gather statistics and other supporting data
• Brainstorm ways to narrow or broaden your research topic
• Identify additional sources of information

You can find print and digital reference works by searching the Worldcat@SU online catalog.  Use the drop-down menu to limit your search to the reference collection.

Use these sources to quickly search for your topic across several reference works at a time.
