Public Speaking: Books, Articles, Newspapers

1. Use the Advanced Search Box on each database.
2. Don't type a search like you would say it.  Stip out all extra words so you only have your main concepts left.
3. Use AND to combine main ideas: (steroids) and (athletes)
4. Think of synonyms for what you want and connect them with OR: (steroids or doping or drugs) and (athletes or sports)

Articles, Newspapers, and Government Publications provide current awareness and research that support your message. Use them to explore background issues as well as specific programs.
