Websites By Subject

If you're looking for websites on a particular topic for a class project or paper, you'll be glad to know that the Butler University Libraries have made some select resources available to you.

Every academic discipline taught at Butler has a library liaison, a professional librarian who focuses on that topic. These library liaisons (or subject specialists) have reviewed many websites by and about people and topics in their disciplines. The "Websites by Subject" page is your gateway to discipline-related websites that have met the approval of our librarians. Give it a click and pick your subject. You just might find something new.
