Here are some ways to keep track of where you've been and what you've found. You probably won't use all of these strategies all of the time, but choose a few and adapt them to make them work for you.
When researching:
- Know what you're looking at
- E-mail good citations and articles to yourself as you find them
- Keep track of what you've done and what worked
- Take good notes
- Keep things in one place
- Print out web pages that you plan to use as sources for your assignment
