Search Tips

-Use quotes around multi-word concepts: e.g., "biological control"

-Use * to truncate your search term for words with common roots: e.g., bio* for biology, biological, biotic, biome

-Use limiters within each database to focus only on the types of materials required by your professor: e.g., limit to peer-reviewed and published after 2000
