3. A class is doing projects on Western history. They have exhausted the library's print collection. In NetLibrary, click "Advanced Search." In the Publisher box, type "Nebraska" or "Oklahoma." Report your findings.
I put in History in the keyword--with Nebraska in the publisher drop-down menu--and I got 37 titles. Each one was published by University of Nebraska (Lincoln) Publishing. Many had to do with Native American history, but there were some very different titles stuck in there, too. For example: International Psychology: Views From Around the World. I noticed quite a few mentioned the Black Hills, and one was even a story of the Days of 76 in Deadwood, which is being celebrated this very week.
Searching by publisher isn't how one would typically search, but in this case, it does produce some interesting results! I didn't realize there was some information about the Days of 76. I will have to check it out.
