Research in FSU Special Collections & Archives

Rare Books

OneSearch

OneSearch is Florida State University Libraries’ discovery search tool for books, articles, media, and more. This tool searches our local FSU collections as well as our online resources.

The search fields shown below are the starting place for searching within OneSearch for archival materials housed in Special Collections and Archives at FSU. Beginning with the search term, you can either enter a relevant keyword or a singular letter and use the “contains” drop down menu to specify whether you are looking for your keyword or an item beginning with that letter. The “any field” drop down menu allows you to specify the type of information about your results that your keyword applies to. To add a second keyword to your search, simply enter it in the second line and be sure to select “and” if your results should include both terms, or “or” if your results may include either term but not necessarily both. Finally, you may narrow down your search even further by selecting the type of material, language, or entering a range for the date of publication.

On the results page there is a menu on the left-hand side with more options for narrowing down the results. In order to search within SCA, you must locate the “library” tab in the menu and select “FSU Special Collections And Archives” or find a specific collection under the “location” tab that begins with “Special Collections And Archives.”
