Once you know your topic, when choosing keywords it's always a good idea to start broad and pare down. An excellent strategy for this is to take the exact words and/or concepts directly out of the syllabus or the text's table of contents.

It's important to know that once you find a relevant subject area for your research, you will also find all of the other relevant books grouped around it.

Instead of texting, the new JETfind uses QR codes and permalinks.
Snapping a pic of the QR codes will open the item to your phone's web browser. If you are browsing the catalog from home, loading the book's location into your phone makes it very easy to retrieve it once you are in the library. Additionally - whether you're in the library or not - QR-ingi the information also means you won't have to print each record out or write down the precise call number(s). Lastly, it's a 'greener' way to go!
Just open your smartphone's camera, hover over the QR code and the rest will happen automatically.
