Trouble Brainstorming?

If you have trouble coming up with a topic or its keywords:

• Check a subject encyclopedia for ideas and concepts.

• Do some exploratory searches in a research database like Academic Source Premier (EBSCO). Look at the abstracts or summaries of articles that interest you; they may give you ideas for topics. Also, look at their subject terms for possible keywords.

• If you need help, ask a reference librarian.
