Search Results
Gauge results
Use to find full text elsewhere in the library
Use helpers to narrow or expand search
Using ERIC
• Eric has good subject indexes• The most useful ways to limit searches are:– Educational level– Publication Type– Peer Reviewed • use this with caution (can be too limiting)
• Take advantage of the thesaurus– Ex. ‘Student affairs’ could be called ‘student
personnel services’
Using Education Research Complete
• Different subject indexing than ERIC• Better for keyword searching– Uses strings & longer phrases than ERIC
• Can’t limit by educational level
Using Google Scholar
• No subject searching but powerful in other ways
• Access from UGA Library Website– Under “Search Tools”– Will ask you for the GALILEO Password
• Limit by date for better results

Change this box to either EndNote or RefWorks depending on what citation manager you use.
Citation Managers
What is Citation Management?
• “Citation management is a web-based or computer-based system that allows you to collect, sort, annotate and group references you find. When you wish to include references in your papers, a citation management system will output selected references within the text and create a bibliography at the end using a style you choose (APA, Chicago, JAMA, MLA, Turabian, etc.).”
EndNote vs. RefWorks
• EndNote– A program you must install on your computer– A bit more powerful than RefWorks– Useful for storing PDFs on your computer
• RefWorks– Web-based—can access from anywhere– A bit more user friendly than EndNote– Write-N-Cite IV coming soon*
RefWorks Set-up
