  3. Topic you searched for:



  4. Term(s) you used in your search:



  5. Did you find additional terms for your topic by examining records your search retrieved? If so, please list some:




  6. Is it easy to find articles on your subject in this database? What made it easy or difficult?




  7. Is fulltext linked for articles in this database? If yes, please give the titles below of three fulltext articles from your search that look interesting to you.









    If fulltext is not linked in this database, check for three articles that look interesting to you, using the SFX link, if there is one, or the Periodicals List, to see if the Library has the articles in fulltext or print. Below, give the titles of the three articles you looked for and indicate whether the Library has them (remember to check the date of your article and of the source). If the Library has an article in more than one source, list all the sources where you could find each article.
