Using Keywords to Search

• Remember keywords are IMPORTANT words

• Start by thinking...

*What do I really want to know?

*Main idea of my search

*Details for support

*Are there other words I can search?

*Synonyms

*One word instead of many

• Use quotation marks to make sure words appear together in your search. For example "chocolate chip" will look for those words together. Without the quotations, your search may return results for chocolate and others for chips.
