How to Begin a Search

Phrase information needed in the form of a question
Decide what kind of information your looking for
- Scholarly journals
- Popular periodicals such as New York Times
- Textbooks
Decide how much you're looking for. Are you looking for several recent articles, or writing a paper and need background information from textbooks plus journal articles?

Once you've answered these questions you're ready to locate books or select a database to locate journal articles.

***Keep in mind that you will use Bobcat's "Books and More" tab to locate TITLES of books, journals, and videotapes.

To locate THE ARTICLES themselves you will need to find a citation in an index, either by using Bobcat's "Article's & Databases" tab or following the link in BobCat.
