  3. You will have so many results, you'll need to use the techniques described in the Save Time on Result List box (link below).You will have so many results, you'll need to use these techniques to save time:
    • Full Text
      Select Full text included to limit to articles with full text online.
    • Source Type
      You can easily narrow down to academic or scholarly resources if your instructor requires it by selecting Scholarly Journals
    • Document Type
      This is an easy way to limit your search to things like audio/video, biographies, case studies, commentary, editorials, government documents, interviews, speeches, statistics, transcripts, and more.
