To find books and articles in library resources (the Library Catalog and article databases), you will need to:
- Come up with keywords for your topic - think of nouns or noun phrases
- Think of synonyms for your keywords because authors and databases may use different words to describe your topic
- Combine your words with AND or OR
- Use AND to combine different concepts to narrow your search
- Use OR to combine similar concepts or variations of words to broaden your search
- health OR well-being
- Upanisads OR Upanishads
- Use the limits or filters (for example, type of source, date of publication, language) in library resources to narrow your search
