Terms and ConnectorsBoolean Logic
• Most databases use terms and connectors
• They help you to search more efficiently
• Some of the most useful are :
/p find in same paragraph
/s find in same sentence
Use “ Quote marks” around a phrase BUT NOT Lexis!!
Truncation employ*(employee, employer,employment)
Spelling-organi?ation-organization,organisation

Broad Search
Far too many results!So........
Use a proximity connector to narrow
the search
