A few notes on Search Strategies

A few notes on search strategies:

  1. Use the Advanced Search when available
  2. Include key words in the title of the article search parameter
  3. include other secondary key words in the abstract search
  4. May need to use an * at times if there could be variations on the word(s)
  5. DO NOT limit to full text until you are sure there is nothing really interesting in the search results. (You can use the library's ILL for articles)
