Google Scholar. Finally, something I am familiar with! Well, somewhat familiar. Again, I learned some incredible research tricks that I can put to excellent use in future research work. ·        Search phrase: Influenza epidemic of 1918-1919 ·        I added the words in the U.S. to limit my results. ·        I did not use any other limiters. ·        This search brought far more articles than I have been able to get through the databases I have previously searched. However, not all these articles are directly related to what I am looking for. If I am not careful, I could suffer from information overload. There is NO WAY I will look through 12,300 results!

  PART ONE 1. Allardt, E. 1993. “Having, Loving, Being: An Alternative to the Swedish Model of Welfare Research.” In Martha Nussbaum and Amartya Sen, eds., The Quality of Life , 88-94. Clarendon Press, Oxford. Type of item: This reference contains the word “in”, page numbers, publisher, and place of publication which indicates a book chapter.   Where I would search: I looked in the Search It catalog under the title of the book, The Quality of Life and found both an eBook and print book listed. How to get the item: Since we are not currently attending classes on campus, I would first see about getting a copy of the eBook. I would first click on online access and then the link next to ‘full text available at’ under access options. This will bring up an online copy of the book from Oxford Scholarship Online.   I would not need to read the entire book, as this references pages 88-94 in a specific chapter. This online version has links to open the book at whatever chapter I need

PART 1 Why was the Influenza Epidemic of 1918-1919 (H1N1) more deadly than other influenza outbreaks, and how did the U.S. respond to treat those infected and (reduce or prevent) spread of the disease?
