Interpreting Search Results

After you get results, note that they are displayed on two tabs

Journals, magazines, news

The resuls on this tab are records of articles from journals, magazines, and newspapers from our over 100 e-resource database subscriptions. Many of these are available in full-text.

These results can be limited by the facets in the right sidebar. Simply, click on the applicable limit link. Among other limts not shown here are Subject, Publisher, Publication title, and Language.

Limiters

You can limit your results to available Full Text, or Scholarly (Peer Reviewed) Journals.

Published Date

Fill in the box to limit the publication date range and click on the  Limit to:  button.

Source Type

You can limit the source type to specific kinds of sources like Academic Journals, Maazines, or Book Reviews.

Other Tips

[*] To get to the full text of an article (or information whether it is available in full text if you have not limited to full text), and other tools like how to cite the article or save it, etc., click on the  Full Text/Cite/More  button next to the title.

[1] If you have added limits and are not happy with those limits, you can "clear" the limits. Notice that after adding limits, a message like this one appears at the top of the sidebar. You can remove them one at a time by clicking the X or all of them by clicking the Clear All button.

[2] Notice at the very top of the sidebar, that your initial search also searched words within the full text of articles. If you want to cut down on the number of your results, you can clear that option.
