Search Tips

Productive and effective searching:

  • Start with one or two keywords 
    • Add terms with AND to narrow results (hypertension AND exercise)
    • If needed, combine synonyms with OR to include related terms (cardiac or heart)
  • Review results to brainstorm additional or alternate keyword options
  • Try multiple searches with different keywords and explore more than one database
  • Apply limiters thoughtfully
    • After seeing how productive your keywords are, limit by date range and English language
    • Other limiters to try:
      • Peer Reviewed (articles must be approved by other scholars before publication)
      • Journal Subset: Core Nursing (in CINAHL, this limits results to nursing journals only)
      • Other database-specific limit options (any author is a nurse, randomized controlled trial, etc.)
Can't access the article or book you need? Use our Inter-library loan (ILL) service!
