Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Want to talk about how librarians can help you as you’re going thru the research process.
  2. One-stop shopping Like the shopping mall
  3. Worthwhile to try DBs outside of the artsSuch as Women & Gender Studies databasesHumanities databases that help w/ this area tooIf really not finding much on your topic, may need to rework search & try diff. search terms BUT also may want to try multidisciplinary DB
  4. How you search can be just as important as where you search.Using the right search terms can make all the difference.
  5. Overwhelming number of hitsMany off topicBUT some useful results that you may or may not have found otherwise
  6. Can find some interesting things from time to time that may not have found otherwise.Article talks about what life was like for women and children during this time period.
  7. Searching in databases allows you to create more refined search. You can narrow your focus & not be so broad.Searched: Dutch in All Text AND women in art in All TextNarrowed to 1995-2013Narrowed to Academic JournalsCan refine results even further using SUBJECTS under Refine Search
  8. Citation infoSubject Terms—LINKS AbstractImagesPDF Full TextTools: Add to Folder; Print; Email; CiteFind related articles: Cited References(?); Times Cited in DB; Find Similar Results
  9. Pg 3 after adding Art Full TextAvailable in JSTOR
  10. Searching GenderWatchSearched JUDITH LEYSTERLots of books reviews which can be helpful for tracking down more books & for getting better idea of what book covers. Link on Women & Gender Studies Infoguide AND under Area & Cultural Studies on DB Portal
  11. Overwhelming number of hitsMany off topicBUT some useful results that you may or may not have found otherwise
  12. SearchingInPrimoSearched: women artists netherlandsResults can be overwhelming & off-topic BUT may find something interesting BUT depends on the searchTry more specific search. Example—specific artist JudityLeysterjudi
