Search Term Hints

  • Think: “What do I need to know more about?” (Look for important terms in your assignment notes) 
  • Broaden or narrow your search terms as necessary (ex: “Soldiers” vs “American Soldiers” vs “Audie Murphy”)
  • Try all possible synonyms and related terms (ex: “President,” “American,” and “Commander-in-Chief” … Consider using an “Advanced Search”)
  • Include both singular and plural uses of the term (ex: “wife” & “wives”) 
  • Look for better search terms in the resources you discover 
  • As you go, keep track of the terms you’ve used, and the results you’ve found (i.e. taking notes)
