Remember that research often involves searching multiple places using different combinations of keywords and advanced search techniques. In thinking of your search strategy, ask yourself the following:

• Where have I already searched for results? Are there databases and places to search I am overlooking?
• What keywords have I been searching? Are there synonyms or related concepts I can try to get better results?
• Have I been too restrictive anywhere? Such as too may keywords at once or adding too many filters?

If you have already found a source that looks relevant, you can use it to find other sources by:

• Seeing if there are other keywords or subject terms associated with the source that you haven't searched
• If it's an article, searching the journal it is located in for other relevant articles
• Looking at the article's references to see if there are any source it cites that might be useful
• Using Google Scholar to see who has cited the source, if possible, which can help point to more relevant material
