WHERE DO I START?
Websites, databases and books all offer different perspectives and resources. Use all three to get the best information. Books contain more detailed, in-depth information, and are available in the library. Databases offer access to magazines, journals and newspapers NOT available on the web. Results can be sorted and searched by date, subject, and reading level. Websites are usually available to all and free, but the quality can vary substantially. BOOKS and DATABASES
Email Mrs. Keister if you need password information to access ISearch. Keyword--Keyword searches search for your terms anywhere in the document. Suggestions--click on a topic to see other possible search terms.
Advanced Search Techniques
These work in the library catalog, ISearch and Google. Use " " around a phrase to search for the exact phrase. "Race relations" forces the search to find results where those words occur next to each other rather than anywhere on the page. Use +/- to include/exclude words from your search. Searching for depression -great will eliminate results that are about the Great Depression in US history. WEBSITES
