Begin with a “discovery” search
• Enter your search phrase in the box on the library home page
• Use natural language but keep your phrase short, just two or three words to describe what you’re trying to find
• Click the “Go” button • Select some books or eBooks from the list
and click on their titles• You’ll see a new page with subject headings
on the right of the screen• Jot down the best subject headings for later
or click them to run new searches now

“Discovery” search limitations
• The discovery search engine cannot see the subject headings for articles
• It can see those for book/eBooks• It is looking for the words in your
search phrase wherever it can find them (titles, summaries, abstracts, etc.)
• You’ll want those “controlled vocabulary” terms (Subject Headings) to streamline your database searches
