Googlebases
Advanced Google search is a viable source for researching information for articles. Advanced Google search is a way to narrow your search results into specific categories of your choosing. When using this search method, you are given several questions to help narrow your search results. Advanced search gives you options such as, find web pages that have all these words, this exact wording or phrase, or one or more of these words. It also gives you the option of not showing a page that has certain words. If these options are not enough to narrow your search, you have the option to select a reading level, different language, file type or domain. While this narrows your search results, you must be certain that you are using a credible source for your information. Other than advanced Google search, Databases are also another good source to find valuable information. A database is an organized collection of data usually on the internet which can be accessed at any time. Most databases are considered to be credible sources, due to the fact that not just anyone can edit the information found in the database. When you are using advanced search, anyone could have made the website that appears in your results, and you have no way of proving if the information is true. Where as with database's you know what you are reading is credible information.
