Use more than one article database. 

  • No database searches everything.
  • For thorough research, use more than one database and try different search terms.

Remember, scholarship is international.

You may come across some great articles in which the titles (and thus the articles) are not in English.

So, when you can, it is a good idea to limit your searches to articles in English.
