To get better results use “Limit your results”
![Page 20: Library services and resources for STVU](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051710/5a675ff57f8b9a8a378b4785/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
3 tips for searching databases
• For most databases, to keep phrases together use double quotation marks.
Example: “database searching”
• Use the keywords of your research question, not the whole question.
• Use “limiters” or search options to keep your results to a manageable number.
