In this tutorial you have learned several different ways to search for information in a database including keyword, phrase, and subject searches. You have also learned that the Boolean operators AND, OR, NOT can be used to create a search using multiple search terms. Using the truncation symbol can help you broaden your search while limiters such as full text, publications, and publication dates allow you to narrow your search results.
