Databases
Sometimes it is a good idea to search in one specific subject database instead of in LUBsearch, which is a metasearch engine and therefore gives results from several databases at the same time. But which database should you choose and why?
Search tips
Subject databases often allow you to more specifically limit a search and in many cases they feature special subject glossaries (thesauruses). A thesaurus provides information on which terms and concepts have been chosen for use in that particular database, a goldmine when you are looking for new search terms.
