| Library books | Use the QuickSearch search tool on the library website. Once you have done your search, use the format filters on the right of the screen to limit to books. |
| News articles | Use the US Newsstream database. Use the filters on the left to narrow down your results. Publication date lets you limit your results to the most recent articles. Publication title lets you limit your results to news sources you have hear of, like the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal. |
| Government/Organization Website | Use Google Advanced Search. Under Site or Domain (about 3/4s of the way down the screen), type .gov or .org. |
| Streaming Videos |
YouTube works for this, but using a library database will give you access to videos you would otherwise have to pay for. Try these databases for video on academic topics:
|
| Encyclopedia article | Use CREDO General Reference. Look for longer entries, usually 500 words or more. Encyclopedia articles are a great way to build background on a topic or idea. |
| Podcasts | I recommend Google. Type your search terms, then add the term podcast. |
