REVIEW BOOLEAN SEARCHING OPAC EBSCO HIT – 2 COMPUTER DEFINITIONS KEY WORD BOOLEAN LOGIC WHY CORRECT SPELLING?

Internet Searching We will use Google ( Advanced Search) as our search engine of choice in the LHS Library. Yahoo and MSN are great for searching of .com sites to buy tickets or find all sorts of items to purchase Yahoo and MSN are directory type searches like process of elimination/broad topic searching in order to narrow topics Ask Jeeves is a search engine that has natural language searching and is intended for youngsters who do not know Boolean Logic

Internet Searching Google is not the be-all-and-end-all of super duper search engines Google is just a good search engine to use for educational research It is only as good as the knowledge of Boolean logic of the user

The blue box at the top is very important The top two lines need to be filled out carefully Top line says “Find Results---with all these words” The second line says “Find Results--- with the exact phrase” In 2nd line put your proper noun keyword search phrase that you want found in exact order

In top line then put the delimiters These would be the subtopics in the student’s outline of their research These would be more specific instead of searching just for anything about a broad subject in the 2nd line For instance: use The Battle of Bull Run in 2nd line and death count, location, survivors, or battle details in top line depending on what specific info you need

Next and very important go down the page half way and find Domain Our school limits use on research to .edu and .gov sites, this is where you place one of those extensions OR the other---not both *refer to Internet Rules of LHS Handout It says you can use both, but it doesn’t work well using both so use one at a time You can figure out if ‘Mafia’ or most history info would be found more readily on .gov sites or if famous people or controversial issues would be found more on .edu sites to try one or other first Then just hit ‘enter’ and all results will be specific and in the correct domain

Things to Beware about Google You should never have to go to second page of hits/resultsOR use the built-in search button of IE If you do not find what you need on the first page of hits, you need to find other keywords to use in the first line of the advanced search Remember the computer doesn’t think; it is you, the user who has the brain Google is not perfect; they sell the first two hits/results on every search to businesses for a fee--- so those hits are bogus For instance: “You can buy a book on the subject of ‘fast food effects on growth’ at Books-a- Million.” You will be supervised any time you are on the Internet doing research to make sure you are using Goggle
