How do I do an effective search?
Subject Headings are assigned to each record by catalogers. Subject Headings (in the Tufts Libraries Catalog, WorldCat, and other library catalogs) have been devised by the Library of Congress; browse them here. Search by SUBJECT in the catalog and use the Subject Headings to quickly find material directly relevant to your topic.
How do I do an effective search?
Try a keyword search, using the connectors AND, OR, or NOT to join more than one topic/keyword....
Example:
(muslim OR islam*) AND (wom?n OR female* OR femin*)
....Now, once you have found at least ONE GOOD RESULT, look at the Subject Headings (also sometimes called Descriptors) in the record, and see what terms that database uses to describe your topic (each database will use its own subject headings, different from other databases!). Now do the search again, using the relevant terms from the Subject Headings. This will focus your search on relevant results, so you won't have to skim through lots of records that won't be helpful in your research.
Note: In the Library Catalog, two asterisks ** are needed for truncation, whereas in many databases only one asterisk * is needed--but ALWAYS CHECK THE HELP SCREEN IN EVERY DATABASE to learn how to do the best (and fastest) searches!
Note: Many are tempted to go straight to the "Electronic Journals" link when they are trying to locate an article out of a particular journal, hoping to find out if it's available online before checking the Tufts Library Catalog for the print holdings. However—everything in the electronic journals list (a.k.a. TD-Net) is now also listed in the Library Catalog (both online and in-print journals). Save yourself time with one-stop shopping—check the Library Catalog first:
- Change the search type from Title to Journal Title.
- Enter the journal title in the search box.
- If the journal is available online, the record will contain a link that will take you there directly. Note that not all issues of each title are available online, so it is important to go further and locate your article before abandoning any plan of finding the print version.
- When not available online, the record will indicate where to find the print version (in-library use only).
- Not available through Tufts online or in print? Do an Inter-Library Loan request through ILLiad, and the article will be scanned in and emailed to your ILLiad account, usually within a week.
Books
- If you want to search for books on your topic beyond what's available at the Tufts University Libraries use WorldCat. You can access this database on the Databases & Articles page.
- If you want to borrow a book that is not available at Tufts University Libraries, follow these steps:
- Search the Boston Library Consortium Virtual Catalog by clicking on its link along the top menu of the Library Catalog. This catalog contains the book holdings at most of the BLC libraries. Users can directly request books through the catalog and pick up the books at Tisch Library. You can also search the holdings of each individual BLC library.
- If the book is not available through the BLC Virtual Catalog, Submit an online request through the document delivery service - ILLIAD. Users are notified when the material arrives at Tisch. You can sign up for an ILLiad account by clicking on First Time Users at the ILLiad home page.
Articles
- Articles not available in full-text through our libraries' databases and print collections can be requested through ILLiad. You can sign up for an ILLiad account by clicking on First Time Users at the ILLiad home page.
- You can also use ILLiad directly within the databases by clicking on the
button.
To answer whether or not a web site is scholarly enough to use in college-level research, consider the following:
1. WHO/WHERE is the page coming from?
2. WHY was it created (what is the bias)?
3. WHEN and HOW OFTEN is it updated?
