Tips

  • Use keywords and combine them with AND, OR, NOT. Use quotation marks to search phrases.
    • Examples: "Jamaican Diaspora" AND Reggae; Caribbean AND Diet; Poetry AND Cuba
  • Use advanced search options when available
  • Filter your results based on what you need (e.g., peer-reviewed articles, reference/encyclopedia articles, criticism/analysis)
  • Save citation information
    • Most of these databases will generate citations for you - MLA and Chicago Style options
    • Look for the option that says either "Cite" or "Citation Tools"
