Research Strategy

• Finding the right search term• Start big and then use patterns you

see in the results list to narrow your topic

• Most resources will have built into their system a “thesaurus” or

“subject” or suggested topics links, use them

• Ask a librarian or your professor for suggestions

• Catalogs – for locating books, maps, musical scores, govt. documents, etc.

• Databases – usually for locating periodical and newspaper articles, but may cover other materials as well
