- Initial search results are usually huge sets.
- Make the results more relevant by placing these 3 limits:
- Full text
- tells the system to only bring up citations with the whole articles
- Date range
- perhaps the last 10 years?
- maybe more recent depending on the topic
- Scholarly articles for this topic began in 2006.
- We'll take that date. No need to adjust.
- Scholarly articles
- The assignment asks you to find scholarly articles
- These might be called "Academic Journals," "Peer-Reviewed Journals"
Example:
The search results were small - only 4 sources.
We adjust this in the next example.
