Locating conference proceedings can be frustrating due to variations in:

• publication type (separate, one-time publications, series, or as special issues in journals)
• publication title
• publication date (may be different from the actual conference date)
• sponsoring association's name

 There are different approaches to searching for specific proceedings:

• search by conference title, ie. "advances in control and communication"
• search by topic and proceeding, ie. ceramics AND proceedings
• search by subject heading for topic of interest and congresses, ie. electric circuits congresses
• search for unique keywords from the conference title in combination with the place of the conference and year, ie. nanobio science and san francisco and 2010

Conference proceedings can be found by searching:
