Tips and Tricks
Want to know if we subscribe to a particular journal? Check out the Current and Electronic Periodicals where you can search for a journal by title or browse the journals we have available. It will also tell you if we have them in print form or electronic form, what database you can use to access them, and what years Gee Library subscribed to that particular journal.
Need help with a citation? Head over to the Online Writing Center at Purdue University. The OWL at Purdue offers both APA and MLA formatting guides along with examples. KnightCite is an easy way to quickly format your citations. Just be sure to proofread the citations carefully.
Want to get the most out of searching the library's databases? Use Boolean searching, by using the terms OR, AND, & NOT you can expand or limit your search returns. The OR operator finds items where one or both search terms are present. For example: Burger King OR McDonald's would find articles that focused on either company. The AND operator locates items where both terms are present, and is used to narrow the search results. For example: Burger King AND McDonald's would only pull articles where both terms appeared. Finally, the NOT operator excludes a term from a search return. For example: Burger King NOT McDonald's would pull articles where only the term Burger King appeared, and would exclude articles with the term McDonald's, even if the article contains the word Burger King.
