Famous Speech Pathfinder

Begin your search for print and visual materials using the library’s online catalog. Start with a subject search by typing in the name of the person, search by biography, speeches, “famous speeches,” and try using Boolean search terms. If you don’t get any results, double check your spelling.

Use the same strategy when searching in a database.
