Google for research

As promised, here are some of the tips on efficient use of the google for your research and of course assignments.


1. Public domain books
Read the complete texts of public domain works like Moby Dick for free by selecting "books" in the left panel of your search results.

2. Hone in a particular range
To specify a particular number range, type .. then a space, then the numbers in your range. For example, if you're searching for cars with over 300 horsepower, search cars "300.. horsepower". Here are some other examples: "220.. V" or "1.. RPM" or "8000.. mAh" battery

3. Health conditions
To see information about a common disease or symptom, enter it into the search box and we’ll return the beginning of an expert summary. You can click through to read the entire article.

4. World news
Search any topic and then click the "News" tab in the left panel to get news results from sources around the world.

5. Similar terms
Get results that include synonyms by placing the ~ sign immediately in front of your search term. A search for Christmas ~dessert recipes, for instance, will return results for desserts, along with candy, cookies and other treats.

6. Filter by reading level
Sort your results by reading level by clicking on Advanced Search and filtering the results into basic, intermediate and advanced reading levels.

7. Access public data
Search demographic terms like population or unemployment rate, followed by a county, state or country, and you'll get instant data about your chosen location directly from the U.S. Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. From there, you can click through to compare rates in different locations.

8. Medication information
Search the name of a generic or brand-name prescription drug and we'll display its summary and description. You can also click through to more info about side effects, dosage and precautions from the National Institutes of Health.

These are all, my dear!!!
