How to use Studybooster

1. Think of some words and/or phrases that describe your study topic. These are the keywords that will help Studybooster find useful resources for you. For example, if you are doing research for a project about extinct animals, you might list keywords like:

extinct, fauna, animals, fossils, bones, environment

2. Type one or more of your keywords into the Studybooster search box. Make sure they are spelled correctly. You can use as many keywords as you like, but remember to separate them with commas, like this:

extinct, animals, environment

3. Press the go button to start your search.

Studybooster will find all resources that contain at least one of your keywords, and show you a results page. If you want to know more about one of the resources, click on the 'more info' button.

How to get better results:

If you do not get many results, try your search again using other keywords. Try to be more general. For example, instead of:

mammals

Try:

animals

You can also make your search more focused by trying the following:

1. Put all phrases in quotes. This is useful if you are looking for a person or a place. For example:

"Alice Springs"

2. Instead of commas, you can use '<and>' to tell Studybooster that all of the keywords must be included in the search. For example:

animals <and> environment <and> people
