Are you using the most appropriate tool?

For any in-depth research topic, use a variety of search tools to ensure you get the broadest possible coverage of the literature.

Although Library One Search is a good starting point, for some topics, you may also need to search a subject specific database e.g. Informit's Australian databases, specific law databases, FinAnalysis etc.

For more information on which database to choose, check the subject guide for your discipline or Ask a Librarian.

What criteria will you use to evaluate your information?
