Tips for Searching Online Databases
When you are searching with multiple keywords or search terms:
- "and" means both terms must show up in your results = fewer results
- "or" means either term must show up in your results = more results
- "not" means that therm must not show up in your results = fewer results
Consider limiting your search by:
- full-text only
- date
- peer reviewed or scholarly publications
You can keep phrases together by putting quotation marks around them, i.e. "fake news"
