The idea with this rainbow of results is: To expose you to thinking about and analyzing all the parts of the document as well as knowing the source that indexes or captures it To guide you in knowing which sources or databases to look for, before you start searching To challenge you to retrieve documents from each of them To get you familiar with these databases To help you use your time efficiently
