As you research, remember to use limiters to match the criteria of your assignment and get targeted results.

  • Use subject headings and MeSH for more inclusive results. What are your key concepts?
  • Use date limiters to find articles less than 5 years-old.
  • Use the peer-reviewed limiter to eliminate popular press and magazine articles
