Searching in JSTOR can be convenient and simple
Simply try out some keywords or phrases that are related to the information you're trying to find
If you are finding too much information or even too little, try improving your results by using Advanced Search
Advanced search lets you select multiple components to add to your search (like Title, Author, Full Text, Year of Publication, etc.)
Please be aware that sometimes, advanced search can be unforgiving and return no results.
If you get few or no results, try changing your search options or make terms/dates/publications more broad.
If you're still getting too many results, try adding more terms/dates and be more specific with your search.
Please stop by the library or email us (library@fhu.edu) for further help navigating JSTOR.
