Searching Power

Boolean Logic

Using the power of the AND OR NOT "Boolean operators" in between your searching terms enriches the quality of the information you find.

children AND vaccines = The search engine will find articles about BOTH these terms

children OR teens = use OR with synonyms to broaden the number of hits

children NOT adults = using NOT before a word will exclude a term narrowing the number of hits

Wildcard Symbol: Using the Asterisk * after a search term tells the database to look for several variations of words. For example child* will search for Child, Children, Childhood.  Wom* will search for women, woman... some databases use the ! exclamation point for the wildcard symbol. 

Use the A-Z Journal List!

When you are looking for a particular journal or magazine, always check the Otterbein A-Z list to see if we have it. 

If we don't have the journal you need, remember that you can always do Interlibrary Loan to get the article.
