Many of the reference resources include encyclopedias, dictionaries, handbooks, and companion texts. All of these will include bibliographies and other listed resources.
Companion texts are collections of scholarly essays meant to provide an introduction to the scholarship of a subject. Each includes its own bibliography, and each essay in a companion text is by a different scholar in the field. Companion texts will include indexes, as well, and many are available online.
Get help from a Librarian! Columbia Libraries host an instant message chat help service, normally available Monday through Friday 10am-5pm, with some evening help.
If after hours, schedule a research consultation for reference help.
