Topic
This module will look at the basic ways to refine your
searches. Techniques based on Boolean logic will allow you
to form
queries that will find the information you want while excluding
unrelated
information.
Objectives
After completing this module, you should be able to:
- Use Boolean logic in searches of various databases,
including World Wide Web search engines.
- Use Boolean logic to widen searches and narrow searches
so that the list of "hits" returned by the search
is manageably small, yet still includes the desired information.
