Need help building a search?
Try truncating words to increase search results:
anthropol* will find anthropology, anthropological, anthropologist, anthropologists
ethnog* will find ethnography, ethnographic, ethnographer
Try using a phrase search:
"Sri Lanka"
"participant observation"
Try using Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT):
Mali AND ethnog*
"Buenos Aires" AND (music OR dance)
"global warming" OR "climate change"
Read our guide on Boolean searching to learn how to create searches like the examples above.
These databases have a more specific focus and can help you deepen your literature search. For example, those interested in environmental issues might check out GreenFILE, and those interested in women and gender studies might explore GenderWatch.
