I'm having trouble finding articles on my topic.
Answer
If you're having trouble finding articles on your topic, try this:
- In general, search using one or two nouns, combined by AND or OR.
- If you find too much information, take out a word. If you don't find enough, add one.
- Use an asterisk (*) to search for variations on a word. For example, searching for student* will bring up records on student and students.
- Go to Research step-by-step 3) Find books and articles via databases
- If you're still having trouble finding what you need, please ask a librarian for assistance.
