This week I learned so much more about Library of Congress Classifications. When doing my search strategy I not only browsed LC website but was able to narrow my search and find really useful key terms to use. I also used proquest and found a lot of useful key words as well.
Searching periodical databases assignment was very helpful. I had never heard of Academic Search Premier. It was very helpful knowing different things about each database and found it very useful that I can get so much help when searching information. The help screens in each database showed me the symbols to use, and what is useful about Boolean and truncation searches.
This week my searches seem to come a lot easier for me and I am able to narrow my search results down to no more than 20 articles during each search. This makes researching so much easier. I can browse almost every article and really pick the ones I want to read.
