  • Use keywords to search for your topics
  • ALWAYS limit to Full Text

Searching Multiple Databases

Use Google to Define Resource Types

Google Web Search

  Use the site command to limit your search to education sites:  
Just add site:.edu at the end of your search.
Example:  "primary sources" site:.edu  (NO spaces between site: and the domain.)


  Quotations around a search phrase tells the search engine to find the exact phrase:
Examples:  "primary source"  "secondary source"   "popular vs. scholarly"
