- Use bibliographic databases appropriate to your topic. Checking more than one can be very useful to pick up unique titles.
- Use keywords and controlled languages
- Use Boolean searching
- Change approaches as necessary—gathering information is not a direct process
- Continue to identify applicable keywords and controlled vocabulary to search in the selected database(s) and other resources
