UWS Online Research Education Modules (OREMS)

This Online Resource Education Module will introduce you to library databases. You will learn about different types of databases and how to choose the right database for your current research need.

Finding Keywords and a Research Question

Use the worksheet here to create your keywords!

The worksheet will guide you on creating broadernarrower, and equivalent keywords. Think of these as degrees of specificity! Less specific (broader), more specific (narrower), same level of specificity (equivalent or synonym). 

Bring this worksheet with you to your library session, as it'll help you with database research, and if you have any trouble, the librarian can help!

This is what the worksheet looks like! If you're unable to download the file you can use this image or contact the librarian for your class on your LATTE page.
