This
screen is an example taken from the database Sport Discus:
1.
The default search type "words anywhere" means that whatever you type into the
"find" box will be looked for in any of the database's searchable fields
2.
In the search statement #1, you have not used any limiting features to narrow
your search.
3.
In the search results given in search statement #1 we have a result of 733,
which means that we have found 733 potential hits with variations of the keywords
"sport" and "condition" and written in the english language
4.
If you wanted to narrow down this search to only hits that have been written
in journals (i.e., journal articles), you would simply type the word "journals"
in the search statement
5.
By choosing "limit your search" in the choices below the search statement we
could be given the option of narrowing our search by year of publication if
we wanted to narrow our search to current material
