Outline of Session Evaluation of Sources Planning your search/Keywords/Boolean Library Tool: Catalog –Al Harris/WorldCat/Ebrary Library Tool: Periodical List Snowballing/Tracking Citations Library Tool: Databases Sample searches Information Literary

Planning Your Search: Major Concerns Right keywords to search –Language, language, language Narrowing the search –Too much information running through my brain Too much information driving me insane - Sting Navigating the Library Web Page –Do you know the neighborhood?

Identifying Keywords Identify the significant terms and concepts that describe your topic from your thesis statement or research question. These terms become the key for searching catalogs, databases and search engines for information about your subject.

Boolean AND = Narrow OR = Expand NOT = Exclude

Boolean Operators Connect keywords only Must be placed between keywords AND –Narrows your search OR –Expands your search with synonymous terms NOT –Excludes words from your search –If used too much, it can work against you!

Library Tool: Catalogs

Catalogs Al Harris Library - Local Holdings - Boolean - Subject Headings - Add Limiter - 2 nd Floor - Last 5 years Open WorldCat - Global - Boolean - Related Subjects - Refine Your Search - Interlibrary Loan Keywords

E-Books: Ebrary/Netbook 24/7 Full Text Searching* Chapter Results Highlight Markup Note Taking Changeable Font Size Online Bookshelf Multiplicity of Use

Library Tool: Periodical List

Snowballing Building on the works of others A scholarly article will always have References/Bibliography… …and a bibliography is always ripe for the picking.
