There are two methods for accessing the huge collection of books on world religions. You can browse for books on World Religions at 200 in the Non-fiction Collection. See the box on the right for the corresponding Dewey number for each of the major religions.
Alternatively you can use Oliver to search for information on your religion.
The Gale Virtual Reference Library is a huge Collection of e-books and you can type in your religion in the search box or browse the religion collection.
You can use Oliver to find books in the library however sometimes it is helpful to know the Dewey numbers for a subject. In doing so you will be able to find books on that subject in most libraries. It will also be useful at those times when you know the topic but don't know where to start looking.
Note that resources about specific events will be located within the Dewey division for the country where the event took place.
