Simple keyword searches in the library databases will often yield many results. To make your search more precise, we recommend using three common search limits (publication date, source type, and subject) that can typically be applied to your initial search results. In LumenPlus, look for these search limits under the column on the left side of the search results page labeled "Refine Results." Similar options are found in most other library database in our system. Keep your initial search simple then use the faceted menu options to "drill down" to a more precise set of results. If you are having trouble at any point, don't hesitate to reach out for help!
