Staying Organized While Doing Your Search Is Very Important
SOURCES: Use a chart (paper or electronic) to keep track of your sources. This is REALLY important because if you don't know where you got your information, you cannot use it.
SEARCHES: Use a chart (paper or electronic) to keep track of where you've already looked: you can waste a lot of time checking and rechecking the same terms, databases or applying the same filters or combination of filters. This is especially important when you're busy and when your research spans several months or even years.
