How Do I Start My Research?
The steps below will help you complete your paper or assignment. If you get stuck, Ask A Librarian .
1. Choose a topic
Based on information you get from your class assignment or research project, you'll need to choose a topic. You can get ideas from:
If you are studying global warming, your topic might be how global warming affects fishing industries.
If you are studying elementary education, your topic might be how reading mentoring helps students in urban schools.
2. Create a search strategy
After a topic is chosen, you'll need to form a search strategy. This step can help you effectively do your library research.
Formulate a search question or thesis statement based on the topic you select.
Identify the main ideas in the question or statement.
Brainstorm alternative terms or synonyms for your main ideas.
When searching, combine and use the best terms rather than typing in your original question or phrase.
You are required to write a paper on global warming and some aspect of agriculture or food production.
Ask a question: " How does global warming affect the fishing industry in the United States? "
Identify the main ideas: global warming, fishing industry, and United States
Brainstorm alternative terms:
Global warming or climate change, greenhouse effect, carbon emissions
Fishing industry or fishing, fisheries, oceans, marine biology, lobsters, salmon, food prices, etc.
