USING SEARCH ENGINES

When you search the web, try to use more than one search engine.  
Also realize, however, that many search engines simply "repackage"
results from other search engines, so expect duplication.
Most importantly, make certain you search effectively --
you can begin by reviewing these search tips from UC Berkeley.  

REMINDER: The content of the sites found with these tools is NOT controlled by CHS/CMS or SCPS.
Thus, you must evaluate sites critically and cite sources properly using MLA format.
