SEARCH EVERYTHING searches through the majority of the Library's databases, e-book/book collection, newspapers and more. You can view a video demonstrating the various features of Search Everything embedded in the screen capture below - note there is audio and closed captioning. 

1. Type in your keywords and click the Go button. Your keywords should reflect the main concepts of what you are looking for, and what terms you would like to see reflected in your results.  There is an implicit AND between concepts; Search Everything assumes you want results with all concepts included. 

It also searches for related terms, e.g. synonyms. "Phrase searching" will look for results with the exact phrase included. Truncation, using the *, looks for root variants, e.g. canad* will find canada, canadian, canadien

For example: "food security" food banks canad*

2. Review the Abstract under Quick Look, or the Table of Contents, where available. The abstract is a summary of the full article, while the table of contents gives you the list of chapters that are included in a book. 

Check to see that the resource is appropriate for the assignment, and reflects the course content. Click on the “Full Text” link to read the item.
