Search Smarter, Search Faster

Aaaaand, we're off!
As you learn about your new classes for the year, my guess is that most of you will find that one or more of your teachers asks you to write a research paper or two (Oh NO!).  Here are a few links to various tutorials/slideshows that will help you get started.

Developing a Research Topic
This slideshow will help you think of topic ideas and narrow these ideas into a good research question.

Developing a Search Strategy
This tutorial will remind you how to develop a list of key search terms and use online tools to begin searching for material.

Search Smarter, Search Faster
The video below will help you when it's time to search the databases on the Library's web page.
