- If you have a specific topic, search for it! Think of a few "key" words, type them in, see what you get. Don't make it too complicated, it's a fishing expedition; if you don't get something, you can always try again :-)
- When you get too few results, try making your search more general, for example, if you're searching for alcohol poisoning prohibition blindness and don't get much, take a word out, try just alcohol poisoning prohibition...
- On the other hand, if you get a really long list of results, you could probably be a little more specific!
- Lastly, don't give up too soon - it may well be that a different search or a new database will get what you need. If you need help with any of this, just ask one of us.
