 Hey there, this is Sherry Sainz at Alden Library, your Gender Studies librarian. Today we're going to look at how to put a couple of the most important gender study databases together to do a targeted specific academic database search. I'm going to start on the library home page. I'm going to go to the database search and see if there are any gender study databases. Oh look, here's one, Gender Studies Database. Let's open it up and see what it looks like. This is an EBSCO database. EBSCO sells us many databases of which gender studies is just one. I'm going to go to Choose Databases so I can add some other gender study databases to my search. We can see here that Gender Studies is already checked. I might want to add, for example, Women's Studies International. Depending on what my topic is, I might also include, for example, LGBT life. If I want a political slant, we'll find out what the grade literature says. I might add left index or alternative press index. I could consider sociology or psychology. Whatever makes sense when I say, okay, I come back to my search screen and I have the databases I chose now in a grouping. And I can do my search here. Notice that because I'm in a Women's Studies database set, I'm not going to add women as my search term. I'm going to do something much more specific. I'm searching a set of high level academic journals and I can get pretty much in depth. So here I have a whole set of academic journals about Women's Studies and my topic. So that's it. Pretty easy. Let me know if we have questions. I'll be glad to help.
