This page supplies
some pointers on searching by author in article indexes and
databases.
| 2. |
| Limit your search to author field, if
possible. |
| |
Depending on the database, you may be able to select
'Author' from a drop down box, or click an 'Author' radio
button. |
|
| 3. |
| If a search on the author's name is
unsuccessful, consider trying one of the following search
tricks: |
| |
|
| |
|
Search the
author's last name first (smith john) |
| |
|
Put the word,
and, between the first and last names (john and smith) |
| |
|
Search the first
initial of the first name followed by the database's
truncation symbol (smith j*) |
|
|
