Books are large-scale studies of a topic. Many aspects of a topic may be included in one book.
Strategies for finding books:
Search by author/title for books you noted in the dictionary or encyclopedia bibliographies.
e.g., Transforming Congregations Through Community: Faith Formation From the Seminary to the Church by Boyung Lee
Search by subject headings assigned to that book to find other related books.
e.g., COMMUNITIES--RELIGIOUS ASPECTS--CHRISTIANTIY
Search by keywords that come from you.
e.g., "faith formation" | congregation*
Search by a combination of subject headings or subject keywords and regular keywords
e.g., "FAITH DEVELOPMENT" | congregation*
